'''Khash''' ([[Armenian language|Armenian]]: Խաշ, [[Azerbaijani language|Azerbaijani]]: Xaş, [[Georgian language|Georgian]]: ხაში), '''Kale Pache''' ([[Persian language|Persian]]: کله ‌پاچه, [[Turkish language|Türkçe]]: Kelle Paça), '''Pacha''' ([[Arabic language|Arabic]]: باجة, [[Bulgarian language|Bulgarian]]: Пача)
is a dish of boiled cows feet ( and sometimes the head). It is a traditional dish in [[Armenia]], [[Afghanistan]], [[Azerbaijan]], [[Iran]], [[Iraq]], [[Georgia (country)|Georgia]], [[Bulgaria]] and [[Turkey]]. Formerly a nutritious winter food, it is now considered a delicacy, and is enjoyed as a festive winter meal, usually by a company of men who sit around in a table, early in the morning.

Modern-day convention in [[Armenia]] dictates that it should be consumed during the month that has an 'r' in its name, thus excluding May, June, July, and August ([[month]] names in [[Armenian language|Armenian]] are derivatives of the [[Latin]] names). No such restriction on khash consumption exists in [[Georgia (country)|Georgia]].
