Beef is a popular dish, whether in stews and roasts or baked good such as Lamaju. Baked goods such as  Lamaju and Beorek are staple food choices for people in Armenia and are eaten at any time of the day.

Armenian Food Culture

Armenian cuisine is a unique and unforgettable taste that will leave a lasting impression on all who taste it. Armenian people pride themselves on homemade food that are loyal to family recipes, so do not expect to see all of the processed food that we are used to in the US. Traditionally, Armenian food is served over a series of courses and nobody leaves the table hungry. Seasonal fruits and vegetable take pride of place on any dish as do meats, herbs and spices.

Apricots, peaches, cherries, pomegranates, pears,, plums, oranges, lemons tomatoes, peppers, cabbage, onions, eggplants, beans, walnuts, almonds, cinnamon, cardamom, rosemary, and clove are just a few of the key ingredients that make up traditional Armenian dishes.
