About Chechen khingalsh
Khingalsh are Chechen flatbreads with a pumpkin filling. Nazaccent’s national recipe uses a wheat-and-water dough around mashed cooked pumpkin, with butter as the finish.
Pumpkin brings a naturally mellow flavour, accompanied by sugar and salt in this version. The butter coating adds dairy richness to the delicate bread and its soft filling.
The thin breads have a folded, half-moon shape before appearing in strips on the table. Their soft pumpkin centres contrast with the lightly browned surfaces and glossy buttery coating.
