Beverages
Traditional coffeehouses (Maqha) used to be ubiquitous, but are now being displaced by food-hall style cafes. According to the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission, "serving Coffee ( which is also called Gahwah ) in Saudi Arabia is a sign of hospitality and generosity". Traditionally, the coffee beans were roasted, cooled and ground in front of the guests using a mortar and pestle. The host would then add cardamom pods to the coffee beans during the grinding process. Once the coffee was brewed, it would be poured for the guests. Today, though, Gahwah is not prepared in front of the guests; instead it is elegantly served in a Dallah and poured into small cups called Finjan. Another of the beverages is Yoghurt which is normally made into a drink called Laban. Sobia is a cold drink usually made in the Hijaz but now available all over Saudi Arabia especially during Ramadan. It's made from a light fermented mixture of Barley/Brown bread, Date palm sap, Herbs and Spices. It may be either white or colored depending on the flavor. It's also found to have health benefits.
Thank you for reading my blog post and please give me a feedback.
Hi Alan,
ReplyDeleteI can see that you have been super busy getting some blogs done over the past few days. I really enjoyed reading all about your family recipe. It was well laid out and I could easily follow it to make it at my own home. It was also intersting learning about the different types of foods your family love.
Why did you choose Saudi Arabia for this activity? Do you have some interest in the country? The food sounds good though. Some of those foods made my mouth water reading about them. Maybe you could add some illustrations to show us what the food looked like to make it even more inviting.
Keep up the great work, and don't forget to comment on people's work too.
