Watertown's Sevan Bakery Gives a Lesson on Armenian Cooking on a WGBH Food Show

WGBH will get a behind the scenes look at Watertown's Sevan Bakery during an episode of Neighborhood Kitchens, airing on Channel 2 on Saturday.

Host Margarita Martinez focuses on the food and culture of restaurants and markets around the Boston area, and this week's show focuses on the Middle Eastern and Armenian fare at one of Mt. Auburn Street's markets.

Sevan Bakery, co-owner Nuran Chavushian will give host Margarita Martínez a lesson in Armenian cooking, according to an announcement from WGBH. They will prepare a feta- and dill-stuffed boreks, karniyarik with bulghur pilaf, and his family’s signature pistachio baklava.

Viewers will also get a tour of Sevan’s market, sampling the olives, nuts and dried fruits that fill its shelves.

Sevan Baker will be part of the show's second season.

“I can’t wait to take WGBH viewers on a trip across New England every Saturday afternoon,” Martínez said. “In this season of Neighborhood Kitchens, we’ll explore how New England celebrates the culinary traditions of Armenian, Mediterranean, Vietnamese, Indian, and Italian cultures, as well as Boston’s storied connection to the sea.”

The show airs at 4 p.m. Saturday on WGBH, Channel 2.
