Ghottab (Qottab) is a traditional Persian pastry that originates from the Yazd region of Iran. It is a crescent-shaped delicacy made from a dough that is filled with a sweet mixture of ground nuts, typically almonds or walnuts, flavored with cardamom, and often infused with rosewater. Once filled, the dough is sealed, fried until golden, and then coated in powdered sugar.
The exterior is light and crispy, while the inside is sweet, soft, and nutty, offering a delightful contrast in texture and flavor. Ghottab is typically enjoyed during special occasions, celebrations, or with tea, making it a beloved treat in Persian cuisine.
