Sangak bread is a traditional Persian flatbread with origins in Iran, renowned for its nutty flavor and unique appearance. It is made from whole wheat flour, water, salt, and occasionally sourdough starter, giving it a robust texture and excellent nutritional profile. Baked on a bed of hot pebbles, its surface develops distinct craters and a slightly chewy crust. Sangak is rich in whole grains, offering a good source of fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals, which support digestion and provide sustained energy. It’s naturally low in fat and free from added sugars, making it a heart-healthy choice. However, like most breads, it contains carbohydrates and should be consumed in moderation, especially for individuals monitoring their blood sugar levels. Sangak pairs well with a variety of Persian dishes or can be enjoyed on its own as a wholesome snack.
