뜻
Traditional bread, usually shoti.
문화적 배경
Bread is never placed upside down on the table, as it is considered disrespectful to the 'gift of God'. If it falls, it is often kissed before being put back. In Eastern Georgia, bread is often longer and called 'Kakhuri Shoti'. It is a point of regional pride to have the longest and most symmetrical loaf. In the capital, 'Tone' bakeries are often located in basements. You can find them by following the smell or looking for people carrying bread wrapped in paper. Bread is used in the Eucharist (Siziareba) in the Georgian Orthodox Church, further cementing its status as a sacred substance.
The 'End' is the Best
The crunchy tips of the Shoti bread are called 'qura' (ყურა - little ear). Many Georgians break them off and eat them on the way home!
Don't Use a Knife
Traditionally, Kartuli puri is torn by hand, not sliced with a knife. Slicing it is seen as less authentic and ruins the texture.

Check the Bottom
Good Kartuli puri should have a bit of flour or even a tiny bit of ash on the bottom—it proves it was baked in a real clay Tone.
The Smell of Home
If you want to make friends, comment on the smell of the bread (პურის სუნი). It's a universal conversation starter in Georgia.
