Authentic Tandoor Bread at Temecula Halal Market in California

Updated: Jul 18, 2024



Tandoori naan


Cooking in a tandoor oven has been practiced for around five millennia. Remains of a clay oven with signs of cooked food have been discovered in the Indus River valley site of Kalibangan, as well as other locations in modern-day Pakistan, Afghanistan, northwest India, Iran, Iraq, and Central Asia.


Tandoor bread is delicious for a variety of reasons, including the baking process, ingredients, and cooking method:

  • Baking process: Tandoor bread is baked in a traditional tandoori oven, which uses a charcoal fire to heat clay oven walls. The high heat cooks the bread quickly, which helps preserve vitamins and minerals and prevents it from drying out. The dough is also pressed directly onto the oven wall for final baking, which gives the bread its special character.

  • Ingredients: Tandoor bread often includes ingredients like yogurt, bread flour, and ghee or buttermilk, which contribute to its flavor and texture:

  1. Yogurt: Makes the dough light and loose, and gives the bread a slight tang

  2. Bread flour: Gives the bread chew

  3. Ghee or buttermilk: Adds a buttery flavor

  • Cooking method: Tandoor bread can also be cooked in a cast iron pan, which gives it a distinctive smokiness and char.
