Eech (Armenian Bulgur Side Dish)

A tangy, savory Armenian side dish that can be served warm, room temperature or cold. I first tried it at St. Mary’s Armenian Church in Florida at their food fest and became instantly hooked. It is a mixture of bulgur (cracked wheat), onions, tomatoes, peppers and parsley.

Armenian Steak Tartare (Chee Kufta)

This is a mouth watering awesome Armenian style steak tartare called Chee kufta by my Aunt Sophie. She made this for me special when I was visiting her, which was very often! It’s important to use very, very lean beef and make sure you have the butcher ground it very fine, twice. Knead it as recipe says to: 5 minutes! No, you won’t get sick if you prepare it correctly!

Chaimen- an Armenian Spice Rub! (Use for Basterma)

Well, without Chaimen, there would be no Basterma! I LOVE Basterma…It is so delicious. A real delicacy. Sliced very, very thin and eaten with The wonderful Armenian bread-Lavash. Can you tell I like Armenian food?? I can’t help it-It’s in my blood. Thanks to my Aunt Sophie!
