Sangak (or nan-e sangak) (Persian: سنگک) is a plain, rectangular, or triangular Iranian whole wheat sour dough flatbread. It is considered to be Iran's national bread. Its name consists of two parts: 'Sang' in Persian means stone or pebble and 'sangak' means little stone. The reason for this goes back to the way this bread has been traditionally baked: on a bed of hot tiny river stones in an oven. There are, normally, two varieties of this bread offered at Iranian bakeries: the generic one which has no toppings and the more expensive variety which is topped with poppy seeds or sesame seeds.
