Markook also known as Shrak (Arabic: مرقوق، شراك) is a type of flatbread common in the countries of the Levant. It is baked on a domed or convex metal griddle known as saj. It is usually large about 2 feet in diameter and thin almost translucent. Similar to the procedures for making some other flatbreads the dough of markook is flattened and kept very thin before cooking resulting in a very slender depth. It is usually folded and put in bags before being sold.
