A Few Of My Favourite Things: Namoura, A New Love




Tried this gem of a dessert, Namoura, found at a Lebanese stall in a food court in near our hotel.

I am normally not a fan of arabic style desserts (mainly because of the use of loads of honey and sugar), but this one sort of caught my eyes (and belly). Ordered a portion (and shortly after, another!)

Imagine a wonderfully deep buttery flavour, redolent with clarified butter (some would argue Ghee), ab-soul-utely dripping with unctuous honey and held together by fragrant notes of orange blossom water.

Uhh-huhh.

I had to have it twice!
