sasoun bakery

sasoun bakery David Yeretsian has created a standard in the Armenian-Middle Eastern bakery industry for over half a century. The name Sasoun Bakery has become synonymous with delicious and freshly baked Armenian food. Over the years, David has grown from a young baker, who had to work to support his father and siblings, to a successful owner of several bakeries in Syria, Lebanon and the United States. In the last 27 years, Sasoun Bakery has burgeoned from a small location in the Little Armenia section of Hollywood to six locations all across Los Angeles County.

Ground beef is another popular filling for Meat beorek. The beef is prepared with a number of spices and cooked before it is used to fill the dough. Again, herbs and spices such as black pepper and parsley are added to the meat mixture to give added flavor to our pastries. A good meat beorek should have plenty of filling and although dough can be heavy it will not weigh your down like some dough-based dishes can. Other fillings for beorek include, spinach and potato, which are available from Sasoun or are available on request for catering services. Come and say hello and we can discuss preparing large orders if you are catering for family and friends or your work colleagues. Sasoun Bakery Beorek

The dish is also known as Lahmajune, lahmacun, lahmajoun, Lahmajeen and is delicious. Some people describe Lahmajun as a topped fatbread or a pizza due to its dough-based. We Armenian’s think that it is much more than any pizza you have ever tasted. Authentic Flavors For lahmajun to be authentic it needs to contain the classic ingredients of thinly stretched dough topped with a unique combination of herbs, spices, tomatoes, and vegetables that celebrate Middle Eastern cooking. The best spice combination is a mix of cayenne pepper, paprika, cumin and cinnamon that come together to make this pizza-like dish its delicious flavor. There are lots of Middle-Eastern bakeries throughout LA but not all serve authentic dishes made with classic ingredients. The Best Bakery in Glendale David’s passion for the natural and wholesome started at a very young age. David was born in Sasoun, Turkey. When he was two years old he lost his mother to illness and moved to Syria with his father. He had to start working at a young age to help his father financially. He worked on a farm driving a tractor harvesting wheat for flour. Shortly thereafter, he worked side by side with experienced bakers. Several years later, he decided to take his passion for baking into the next level and created his own organic recipes. That is when he opened up his first bakery in Syria. In a short time, he became the owner of three bakeries. Unfortunately, this dream was short lived due to the government control over the bakery industry in Syria. He left his bakeries behind and settled in Beirut, Lebanon where he had to start all over again. His passion for baking fueled a desire to build a name for himself again, this time on a grander scale. Within a few months, he opened his first Sasoun Bakery in Beirut and quickly became a

huge success. Over the years, Sasoun Bakery came to be the most trusted bakery name in Lebanon, known for its tasty lahmajunes and unique Torpedo spicy cheese beoregs, a creation of David’s. In 1985, due to the unrest and unstable situation created by the ongoing civil war in Lebanon, David left his life and bakeries to his siblings and moved with his wife and four daughters to Los Angeles. Having moved to a new country for the third time in his life, David had to rebuild his life and business all over again. Not knowing the language, city, or anything besides his recipes, he managed to open up his first Sasoun Bakery in East Hollywood at a location notorious for a succession of failed businesses. But that did not discourage him and within a few years, once again, he had dominated the market against all odds. He had found huge success. He opened his second location, followed by four more. Today, he owns six bakeries within the Los Angles County area.
