Lebanon

Freshly picked and dried on the sun, stuffed dates, apricots and figs...

Do you like dried fruits? I do. Lovely, naturally sweet, full of aroma, both chewy and crispy. And if eaten in their country of origin they taste much, much better. Dried figs, walnuts, dates,…

Extremely sweet, smooth and full of flavors - that is how the Lebanese Halva is!

One of traditional and loved sweets in Lebanon is halva. And believe me – it is really good and worth trying, even if you do not like sweets very much. Well, yes, it is sweet. It is even very sweet, but also delicious.

Manouche with labneh accompanied by greens and fresh peppermint leaves

Manouche is a kind of a pizza on a thin base. It is topped with either zaatar or with any kind of Lebanese cheese or with minced meat.

Lebanese cuisine cannot exist without Za'atar, but what's that? Curious about it?

Have you ever heard about zaatar? Do you know what is that and what could you use it for? If you are curious about it, read it!

Lebanon food

Lebanese cuisine is refreshing, full of vegetables, fruits, fish and seafood. These are accompanied by starches and whole grains, what makes that cuisine healthy and colourful. Lemon juice, garlic, parsley and other herbs add a lot of aroma and flavor. Hummus, sesame tahini paste, tabbouleh, all sort of mezze, baklava and shawarma are staples and well known. No Lebanese meal can exist without a famous, flat bread - pita. But there is a lot of other dishes that are worth trying too. Then, you cannot of course forget about Lebanese wine and an anise liquor – arak.
