The Bread of Life
I am getting the hang of eating the bread of life...kung sa atin ay pan de sal dito naman ay Khubus, Khoubz or khobz ang pangalan. This is an Arabic flat bread just like a lumpia wrapper they use to wrap or make for shawarma. This is their staple food of the local diet in many arabic or middle east countries. khoubz generally means "bread" but in most cases it refers to a large type of flat bread baked in a special oven. The dough is rolled out like a pizza dough then it is positioned on a round pillow and slapped on to the inside wall of the large round stone oven. The impact of the slapping action causes the dough to stick to the wall of the traditional oven, where it remains until it is bubbling and brown and cooked through, then a long wire hook is used to remove the finished khoubz and throw it over to a tile counter where it is ready to be sold. The whole process is carried out by two or three men.
