Khash

Khash is a traditional Armenian dish made from boiled cow or sheep parts, which can include the head, feet and stomach or tripe, and is considered one of Armenia's most ancient culinary creations. It is seasoned simply with garlic, salt and black pepper and served with lavash bread, and although rooted in Armenian cuisine it has spread across western Asia, appearing in the food traditions of Afghanistan, Albania, Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Georgia, Greece, Iran, Iraq, Mongolia, North Macedonia, Turkey and parts of the Persian Gulf. In Armenia and the wider South Caucasus it is typically eaten early in the morning during winter, carrying cultural significance as a dish eaten after celebrations and reputed to remedy a hangover, traditionally accompanied by vodka.
