Aşırın tandır bread is a traditional wheat flatbread baked in a tandır, a clay oven. Its dough is cooked against the hot inner wall, rather than on a flat griddle, which gives the bread its characteristic baking method.
Aşırın tandır bread is traditionally shaped from dough and pressed onto the hot inside wall of a tandır. The bread cooks from the oven’s intense heat and is removed with a long tool when ready.
Yes, you can make Aşırın tandır bread in a home oven, although it will not exactly reproduce a clay tandır’s heat or cooking surface. Use a very hot oven and a preheated baking stone or steel to get a closer result.
Aşırın tandır bread is baked against a tandır’s inner wall, while lavash is commonly cooked on a griddle or in an oven. Their thickness and texture vary by recipe, so the cooking method is the clearest distinction.
Aşırın tandır bread is generally made with wheat flour, water, and salt. Some recipes use yeast or sourdough to leaven the dough, but ingredients and preparation can vary between households and regions.
Store Aşırın tandır bread in a bread bag or wrapped in a clean cloth, in a cool, dry place, if you plan to eat it soon. Avoid trapping moisture in an airtight container, which can encourage mold.
Yes, Aşırın tandır bread freezes well. Separate it into portions, seal them in a freezer-safe bag, and thaw only what you need; briefly warming the thawed bread helps restore a softer texture.
Warm Aşırın tandır bread briefly in a covered pan or oven, with a light sprinkle of water if it has dried. Keep the heating time short, since prolonged heat can make the bread brittle.
Aşırın tandır bread goes well with soups, stews, grilled meats, and simple meals with cheese or eggs. Its flat shape makes it useful for scooping up sauces and the juices from a dish.
Aşırın tandır bread hardens when moisture escapes into the air, especially from a cut or exposed surface. Wrapping it in a clean cloth or bread bag slows drying; briefly warming it can soften bread that has already firmed up.

Aşırın tandır bread is a traditional Turkish loaf made from a simple dough of flour, water, yeast and salt, baked against the hot inner wall of a tandır oven. The intense heat gives it a lightly browned exterior and a soft, airy centre. It is served alongside meals such as soups, beans and grilled meat, or torn into pieces to scoop up sauces. At home, it also works well with cheese, olives and tomatoes for breakfast. The bread is mainly a source of carbohydrates, with 52 g per 100 g, and contains little fat. Pair it with eggs, yoghurt or beans for a more filling meal, or toast leftover slices.

How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
