Original Hawowshi Brings Rare Egyptian Street Food to Los Angeles
Amir Edward, chef and owner of The Original Hawowshi, is bringing the flavors and rustic taste of Egyptian aish baladi (Egyptian flatbread) to L.A. — with help from his grandmother. He shares with us how she is the ultimate inspiration behind his business and how the relaxing and meditative process of breadmaking brings them closer together. He uses their homemade aish baladi bread to make hawowshi, a quintessential Egyptian street food, available to the diverse communities of L.A.
