Since
ancient times, Kokand has been one of the major cultural centers of the region,
where handicrafts, trade and national cuisine have been widely developed. A
special place among traditional dishes and products is occupied by Kokand
patyr, which is famous for its unique taste, unique recipe and special cooking
technology.
A
distinctive feature of this type of bread is the traditional method of making,
thanks to which it is able to preserve its taste and freshness for a long time.
The
registration of Kokand Patyr as a geographical indication will ensure the legal
protection of the product name and the traditional technology of its
production, increase quality requirements, and also contribute to the
popularization of the gastronomic brand of the Ferghana region both in
Uzbekistan and abroad.
For reference:
A geographical indication is an intellectual property object that confirms that
a particular product originates from a particular region, and its quality,
reputation, and unique characteristics are determined by the natural, climatic,
and socio-cultural characteristics of that territory.
