Eristystakit

Eristystakit is a type of traditional Georgian bread that is popular in the Caucasus region. It is a flatbread made from a simple dough of flour, water, and salt, often leavened with yeast or sourdough. The dough is typically kneaded and allowed to rise, then rolled out into a thin, oval shape before being baked in a hot, dry oven. The bread is known for its crispy crust and soft, chewy interior. Eristystakit is often served with various dishes, such as khachapuri, a cheese-filled bread, or as a side dish with stews and soups. It is a staple in Georgian cuisine and is enjoyed for its simplicity and delicious taste. The bread's name, "eristystakit," translates to "bread of the people" in Georgian, reflecting its widespread popularity and accessibility.
