HYEBURGER
ARMENIAN BURGER ՀԱՅԲԸՐԿԸՐ

This morning, at our local TV s news magazine section , as it is the custom the feature food was all Armenian. It was prompted because the local Armenian church is having a food fest today and tomorrow .The local priest/pastor Fr. Srepanos was the guest.
Sadly he did not give us the Armenian names of the featured dishes.
The main dishes he spoke of was Kebab, Lamb kebab, beef kebab, chicken kebab etc. When the host asked- So Kebab is an Armenian word?, the guest said -
Well, umm! It is a Middle Eastern word.
Further, as it is customary the cooking show was about HyeBurger. The chef Bill Nevins said- HYE means Armenian, so it is an Armenian burger.
From there the chef spoke about Baklava,/Paklava , explaining the difference between the Greek and the Armenian spelling .ie the honey v sugar syrup.

Above we saw HyeBurger.
Today it is tine for Lebanese cuisine.

Among others like Laban/labne , today the feature is Manaqish/Managish. They pronounce it as Manoush.. Maoush is an Armenian name from Manoushak/Violet, some say mennoush.
See Zaatar hats manaqish here;

She also talks about Laban v the furko-greek word yoghurt. Laban means White, matsun in Armenian.
We will see why Lebanon is named so.. The French call it Liban(on) and the Armenian is Լիբանան/Libanan.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebanon
 

Etymology[=The name Lebanon originates from the Semitic root LBN (لبن), meaning "white", likely a reference to the snow-capped Mount Lebanon.[14]
Occurrences of the name have been found in different texts from the library of Ebla,[15] which date to the third millennium BC, nearly 70 times in the Hebrew Bible, and three of the twelve tablets of the Epic of Gilgamesh (perhaps as early as 2100 BC).[16]

It is serendipitous irony that her name as Julie Tabbouli. We will get to that later.
A surprise to me.
A sneak peek -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabbouleh

Etymology=The Levantine Arabic tabbūle is derived from the Arabic word taabil, meaning seasoning.[4]

See also Mutabbal;
http://en.wikipedia....i/Baba_ghanoush
A similar dish, but with mashed aubergines and without other vegetables, is known as mutabbal (متبل literally 'spiced') in the Levant but is called baba ghanoush in Egypt.

PS. If only we would stop speaking furkish, dolma-basturma-ish.. Hello Mr. Sedrak the comedic clownish so called urarto-furkish linguist Mamoulian. Please instead teach us Armenian.
