SAEDNEWS: Sangak is a traditional type of bread which seems to be common only in Iran, hence can be called the country’ national bread.
“Honor the bread, as the Lord has sent it down from the heavenly blessings, and brought it out of the earth’s blessings,” said Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), the prophet of Muslims.
Sangak is not just a staple in Iran—it is considered one of the healthiest, most delicious, and easiest-to-digest types of bread in the world.
What sets Sangak apart is its use of whole grain, including the bran, which is rich in fiber. This natural ingredient slows down, and in some cases prevents, the absorption of sugar and fat, making Sangak ideal for people managing diabetes, high blood lipids, vascular diseases, gastrointestinal cancers, and obesity.
Sangak is also excellent for children, particularly during the crucial stages of nerve cell development. The iron found in this traditional Iranian whole-grain bread contributes to better cognitive growth, helping children become smarter and healthier.
By combining wholesome nutrition with unique flavor and texture, Sangak offers visitors not only a taste of Iran’s culinary heritage but also a glimpse into the country’s emphasis on health, tradition, and everyday blessings.
