Shotis puri
(შოთის პური, Shoti, Tonis puri)
Shotis puri or shoti is a Georgian baton-like bread made with whole wheat flour, salt, water, and yeast. It is traditionally baked until golden brown in a deep, circular oven called a tone. The freshly baked bread is then placed on wooden racks to cool, and it is usually sold wrapped in a sheet of paper.
Shotis puri is consumed as an everyday bread, but it is especially popular during festive events such as Easter, Christmas, and birthdays.
