About Khobz regag

Regag is a thin Gulf flatbread with a simple flour, water and salt base. This documented Bedouin rendition has a crepe-like form and is served hot, with melted butter offered as a topping.

The plain bread has a mild, savoury flavour and a thin surface. Optional butter adds dairy richness to the simple flour base, while the bread itself remains the central part of the serving.

Its broad, delicate shape suits individual pieces of bread at the table. The plain form belongs to the region’s everyday bread traditions, alongside more elaborate filled and topped renditions.
