The freshest: the prefix ամենա-
"The most" is not a separate word here. The superlative is the prefix ամենա-, glued to the front of the adjective: ամենաթարմ հացը (hatsə) — the freshest bread. One word, no space, no other changes. For example: “Ասիկա (asiga) ամենաթարմ հացն է” — This is the freshest bread. A rule from the Western Armenian course: worked out on examples, not memorized as a wording.

How the rule settles in your head
A rule is not memorized from an explanation. It is memorized from an attempt to use it and a mistake — that is why the app delivers it mixed in with words, not as a separate lesson: it resurfaces exactly where you forgot it.
