How to Wrap Lavash Without Tearing: Advice for Homemade Shawarma Lovers
Lavash is actively used in the process of preparing not only homemade shawarma, but also rolls with a wide variety of fillings.
If you want the snack to turn out perfect, you will have to make sure that the lavash sheet does not tear during the process of rolling it.
A few simple rules that we have described in this article will help you with this.
So, the first thing you should do is to spread the “Armenian bread” with sauce, which can be mayonnaise, sour cream, cream cheese, etc. After that, wait a little while for the thin sheet to soak. And only then can you start laying out the filling.
If you are going to cook food with a lot of sauces (the same ketchup and mayonnaise), wrap it in a longer lavash with a couple of layers added to the sides (that is, the top and bottom).
Conversely, if the filling of your dish is rather dry and does not contain much oil, mayonnaise and other relatively liquid ingredients, you do not need additional layers of lavash.
Remember: lavash can tear because you tried to “shove” too much filling into it.
Another common cause is large and hard parts of food. Therefore, all the food that you plan to wrap in a tortilla should be cut into small pieces.
Finally, try not to roll the lavash too tightly, as this may cause it to break.
