They look like chickpea dosa or ba'ir (Algerian dosa-like flat bread, however it's written).
Both of those are pleasantly tangy. They're both very similar to the perhaps more well-known 'injera' or 'lahoh.' I make them in the summer cuz they take no time to cook. I use them as sandwich wraps.
Last time I made some was about... a month or so ago.

the texture is actually really good. fluffy, light and soft, and not gooey or undercooked or anything like you might think. the bottom is nice and slightly crispy. you just haven't had fermented grain breads before probably.

>>5684334
tastes similar with less grainy of a taste
is also good with the syrup you put on pakhlava/baklava or rose syrup as >>5681897 says. get it at a local arab store; the equivalent persian or south asian syrup is called 'rooh afza', but its a bit less sweet.

Or if you see a picture of a regional food item that's clearly been taken at a restaurant asking "How do this look" or "What do you think of [food item]" just go to Roadfood and there's like a 90% chance it'll be on the front page and this fucking anon just took it from there.

>> No.5685404

>>5685398
I don't see what the problem is. It's encouraging some decent discussion; it's interesting to see what conclusions people draw from a dish's mere appearance (trolls aside), or what they think it is based on what it most closely matches where they live.

>> No.5685408

>>5685404
Honestly I don't have a problem with making the threads and the discussion is often good. It's just weird to me that someone (or maybe multiple people) is doing this consistently, over and over, and that they never credit the source or give any of the context that they obviously have.

>> No.5685433

>>5685408
I'm actually the one doing it. Yes, this is "Roadfood Anon" revealing himself. Sometimes I'll take it from the front page, or I'll go back some if nothing on the front page looks too interesting.

I deliberately leave out the context because it's an easy thing for trolls to hook onto. Reveal where something is from and it's easy for the thread to get derailed with dumb shit about how so-and-so is a shithole or can't do pizza right or whatever. Lack of context forces people to conclude what they can with the dish based only on a photo. Of course someone can reverse image search it and make things easier for everyone but that doesn't always happen.

Roadfood itself is a pretty awesome site btw, it's the only one of its kind I've seen, dedicated to publicizing lesser-known, hole-in-the-wall places, stuff that never shows up in Zagat or Serious Eats. I've learned more about weird regional dishes through that site (horseshoe sandwiches, garbage plates, etc.) than anywhere else.

>> No.5685464

>>5685433
Okay, fair enough. I'm glad to see you've put some thought into it at least. I also love Roadfood for much the same reasons, although it's far from infallible - there's a lot of really cool regional food on it that I love. I don't think the context would always be a bad thing, but maybe I'm being too optimistic about /ck/'s ability to have a conversation.

We cool, I'll stop pestering you.
