Description

Mahlab is an aromatic spice derived from the kernel of wild cherry seeds. It has been used for centuries in the Middle East and surrounding areas.

It is mainly used in confectionery in cookies, cakes, cakes, buns, breads, but also in creams, compotes and sweets that contain dried fruits. It goes well with cloves, cinnamon, nuts (almonds, peanuts and walnuts), rose water and fruits such as dates and apricots.

It can also be used in cooking in sauteed vegetables or creamy soups, rice and in dishes with carrots or pumpkin.

To prevent its aroma from evaporating, keep the mahlab in a sealed jar, in a dry environment.
