White groat and chicken are used for cooking harissa-one of the most popular dishes of Armenian cuisine. Although the dish consists of just two ingredients, it has a special delicate taste and is very appetizing. In ancient times, hosts used to invite their friends and relatives during cooking, in order to take part in the cooking process and taste the dish together. It was an important ritual.
Harissa is particularly delicious in winter and in cold weather, as it is served hot and is very nutritious. It is recommended to add butter and salt before eating.
