Sweet Bread

In Afghanistan, this popular sweet bread is made for birthday and engagement parties. People would make the roht dough at home and send it with one of the children in the family to the local bakery where the daash waan, or baker, would roll and intricately decorate the roht before baking it perfectly in a special oven. It would be picked up a couple of hours later and taken home to cut and enjoy as part of the celebratory spread.
