Imagine a world without shawarma and pita bread, hummus, falafel and kababs - is that not enough reason for a heartbreak? So, are you (much like us) salivating over these exotic and scrumptious Middle Eastern dishes?
Middle Eastern cuisine is as old as its origin. As empires grew, so did their taste for refined food items. Recipes passed from one generation to the next still retain their authentic touch no matter which land it originates from.
Its unique combination of deep flavoured spices like coriander, cinnamon, cassia, turmeric, saffron and garlic gives it its mouthwatering taste.
With people migrating to America for a better lifestyle, the delectable cuisine has now spread its wings to slowly become a popular and dependable snack item, which can be quickly munched on while on the go.
