How Georgia's national dish Khachapuri is made

TIFLIS
You know pizza, right? But have you heard of khachapuri? This cheese-filled bread is a national treasure for Georgians and one of their national dishes. They eat it at any time, for breakfast, lunch or dinner. You could say that khachapuri is the Georgian version of pizza, but even more versatile, as it comes in 47 different varieties. For example, there is the boat-shaped Adzharian khachapuri, the version from Imereti, which is round and flat and topped with cheese. And Achma khachapuri has several layers, similar to a lasagne. Each type is typical of a particular region. In this video, we show you how ajarian khachaouri is made.
