Ziva (Hebrew:זיוה) is an Israeli dish made ofpuff pastry topped with sesame seeds, and stuffed withcheese andolives. Ziva is served at home and in restaurants. Ziva is cooked in a style similar to the YemeniteMalawach but its ingredients more closely resemblebörek, both of which are also common in Israel. Ziva is usually served alongside a hot sauce (skhug), eggs andIsraeli salad.
Ziva is thought to have been invented by chef Neri Avneri's wife at the Nargilla restaurant in 1989.[1]TasteAtlas listed it as the third lowest-rated Israeli snack.[2]
