🍞 Craving a taste adventure? Head to the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in the Chinese mainland and you’ll find naan everywhere—tea houses, roadside bakeries, and breakfast tables alike.
Think of naan as the region’s comfort food superstar: crackly on the outside, pillowy on the inside, and sprinkled with sesame or nigella seeds for extra flair. It’s eaten anytime—breakfast, snack time, or midnight munchies.
In Yining city, CGTN Digital’s Nadim Diab attempted the ultimate foodie challenge: baking naan by hand. He discovered that nailing the dough’s stretch, mastering the oven’s heat, and timing the flip perfectly is no small feat—definitely not your average kitchen hack! 🔥
Whether you’re a global foodie, an aspiring home baker, or an explorer planning your next trip, naan is a must-try. Just be ready for a delicious (and slightly challenging) culinary ride. Who’s up for the naan challenge? 🙌
