Khash Season Coming up...

[Mos]

Its that time of the year when the days are cold and you know what that means.....khash! I bet most Armenians know what it is but just a reminder, its a soup made of cow feet bone, and is boiled into a broth for about a day (correct me if I'm wrong), then it is eaten with lavash. Some people including me eat it with no spoon and use hands to eat the soup (with the lavash of course).

Any body have any thoughts or stories about khash eating?

Khash eating? My favorite dish and here is my story, so, I was studying for finals when I was a undergraduate and we all know how much energy your brain drains when you are studying. Well, so, I suddenly get a urge to visit home and what is waiting for me? But a big bowl of hot khash plus all the great meaty components like the tongue, the brain, and the legs. It was the best khash I had in a long time, nothing beats khash, nothing.

But here is another story, so, its a saturday morning (You usually eat khash in the mornings, but again, Armenian men have been known to eat it for breakfest, lunch, and dinner, plus, sometimes, even as a late night snack!), my friends wake me up and we drive over to a local joint for khash. After were done eating, we get a phone call from another one of our mutual friends and then we drive over, pick him up, and go try khash at another local place. As you can imagine, this left me full for a couple days or so, but it was worth it.

bokh khash e gokh.

A great excuse to drink in the morning. And, take a late morning nap.

pinch of salt, splash of vinegar and a spoonful or two of crushed garlic. forget about it.

Also, the tendon and bone marrow burritos wrapped in lavash with pickles, tarragon and mustard are worthwhile closers.
