Shohon

Shohon is a traditional practice in some Middle Eastern and Central Asian cultures where individuals or groups prepare and offer special food, often bread or pastries, as a form of hospitality, celebration, or charity. It symbolizes generosity, community bonding, and respect for guests or the needy. The act of shoohn emphasizes sharing resources and fostering goodwill within the community. While it can vary by region, the essence of shoohn is its role in strengthening social ties through meaningful, communal acts centered around food.
