I have written earlier on this site about the need for more Emirati chefs and greater opportunity for UAE residents and tourists to experience Emirati food.It was a pleasant surprise to discover the blog, ‘Arab Mania’ and today’s post entitled, ‘Tasting Emaraati Traditional Food’.
The blog writer, described as a ‘proud humble Muslim wife who enjoys what is good’, has brief descriptions and pictures of popular dishes served in the Emirates.
These dishes include:
* Raqaq (made from soft unleavened dough)
* Shobab (traditional Bedouin bread)
* Al Harees (meat and wheat dish)
And, so many more delicious dishes.
Thank you for the posting. Shukran.
