Private Select Lavash Wraps
What it is
These are large, thin, unleavened flatbreads, traditionally baked in a tandoor oven. They are soft and pliable, making them ideal for wrapping around various fillings. Their simple ingredients and preparation result in a versatile bread that serves as a base for many dishes. The large size allows for generous portions of ingredients to be enclosed within each wrap.
How people cook with it
Lavash wraps are a popular choice for creating convenient and customizable meals. They can be enjoyed hot or cold, making them suitable for a wide range of culinary applications.
- Rolled with deli meats and cheese
- Filled with grilled vegetables and hummus
- Used as a base for pizza
- Cut into triangles for dipping
To prepare a meal with lavash wraps, simply lay a wrap flat on a clean surface. Spread your chosen condiments, such as mayonnaise or mustard, evenly across the surface. Layer your fillings, which could include sliced meats, cheeses, crisp lettuce, or cooked vegetables. Fold one edge over the filling and then roll the wrap tightly from that side to enclose everything. For a warm dish, you can lightly grill or pan-fry the filled wrap until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike thicker tortillas or pita breads, lavash is significantly thinner and more flexible. This thinness means it doesn't add a heavy doughy texture to your fillings. It also bakes to a crispier finish when heated, offering a different textural contrast compared to softer flatbreads.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a flexible and easy-to-use bread for quick meals will find lavash wraps very convenient.
How to keep the rest
To keep leftover lavash wraps fresh, ensure they are properly sealed. Place any unused portions back into their original packaging or a resealable plastic bag. Store them at room temperature away from direct sunlight and moisture. This will help maintain their pliability for several days.
