Sangak - an Ancient Persian Bread - and the Best Koobideh outside Iran! 

Sangak is centuries-old bread dating back to the days of the Persian empire.
Back then soldiers were commanded to fill a little pouch they had with pebbles each time they crossed a river. When they got back to camp, they’d lit a bonfire and empty all the pouches on it, creating a makeshift oven, and baked their bread from a very simple dough on it.
Simple as the dough is, Sangak is super delicious, and still loved and made all over Iran.
And the best thing to have with Sangak is of course Koobideh, the Persian king of all kebabs.
According to my friend Reza Namazi, one of the most knowledgeable people in the world about Persian food, the best place outside Iran to have both Sangak and Koobideh is a simple restaurant in Dubai called “Khoory Special Kabab”.
Reza is as always right, and ever since he introduced me to Khoory, Sangak, and Koobideh, I can’t even imagine visiting Dubai without going to Khoory for my fix of Koobideh on Sangak.
