    My ex-husband is Palestinian and I lived with his family for a while. His mom had a garden and made everything from scratch. I often crave her cooking and miss eating at their home. The food during Ramadan was just mouthwatering. The first thing she taught me was how to make mint tea, it was extremely important to her ☺️ she is such a sweet woman! He and I divorced on good terms but I don’t live near them anymore so I decided to start making the food myself. I can’t wait-this looks delicious. We ate a lot of these dishes.

    I love this so much. So much nostalgia. Growing up, we always had a bowl of olive oil and another bowl of zaatar sitting on the kitchen table for everyone to snack on throughout the day. If you want to try Palestinian falafel, my grandma in Gaza used to make me the best falafel I've ever had. They're stuffed with onions and sumac, and we Gazans also like to add chillies to the mix. Some cook the onion stuffing beforehand some don't. I believe the sumac and onion stuffing is also eaten in Jerusalem.

    3:11 That Mferkeh is known in Germany as "Farmers Breakfast". Panfryed potatoes... with egg thrown over at the end. Sometimes there is bacon in it and onions as well, but the most basic version is potatoes and egg. We usually cook the potatoes using a steam method and then first use part of them as potato salad, and the leftover... gets fried next day.

    A Palestinian friend of mine used to make tea like this. He used a special sage that his mom had to import for him, not the normal sage you get here in the grocery stores. Also he made it with a lot of sugar. It was super-delicious and really good for settling your stomach.

    I am here after reading, 'Tasting The Sky' by Ibtisam Barkat. And I am so glad to be here. The staple pantry and fresh produce of your cuisine has so much in common with the North Indian cuisine that I am totally motivated to try making these.
    Halba in India is called Halwa. It is made with ghee, semolina and sugar. Other variations include making sweet mashes with lentils, carrots, squashes. The savoury finger food version is steamed and tempered. It is called Dhokla and has a breakfast version called rava ( meaning semolina) idli ( rice cake).

      @pubcollize Před 2 lety +2

      @@MiddleEats Just make the labneh yourself, it's real easy and not too messy. Store bought labneh isn't worth the price, and you'll nail the recipe in like two tries for sure.
      My sister's tip for making labneh is - salt the yogurt until it tastes like amazing ayran, at that point it's ready for straining.
      Also she taught me there's no need to hang the cheesecloth if there's no convenient way to do it, just put the tightened bundle in a colander over a large pot (about 2-3 times the volume of the yogurt) and empty the pot after 1-2 hours before you go to bed. Within 2 hours about half of the water comes out so you can make sure the pot doesn't overflow.

    To Salma:dried sage is called maryamiya; derived from the Common name Maryam. A legend says a mother was saddened by her child’s illness & 1 night she had a dream of Lady Mary (Maryam peace be upon Her) telling her to cure her child with a particular plant that grows in the wilderness. When she woke up she went & got some & gave it to him and it cured him. And that’s how people in the Levantine region got to know this herb , started using it & gave it the name Maryamiya 😀
