@@drunkara3179 hey! I'm Palestinian 3 LOL hiiii...Thank you Emmy for this it really blew me away..I've been a fan for years!! Now u gotta try Konafaaaaa
Ma'moul is a wide spread Arabian cookie. In Iraq we fill them with different fillings like dates, pistachios, coconut, walnuts, sesame seeds, dried figs and luqum. We make it for Eid and Christians make it for Christmas and we call the Iraqi variant (Kleicha) which is a little bit different . Well done Emmy💚
It's best described as Mediterranean not Arabic and if you MUST it's Arabian not Arabic. Ma'aamoul is typically Lebanese a culturally shared sweet Made traditionally during Holy Easter and Ramada/Eid El Fitr.
@@imqsqs let's just say middle eastern and end it there please? We can argue forever about its origin (which we will find resemblances for all over the world) but if we all enjoy it equally, why bother? Emmy just used the Lebanese flag, probably because she received it from a Lebanese person. She never attributed it to them only but linked it to Ramadan in general.
@@madpetrolhead1 date palms originated in North Africa, Arabian peninsula, and maamoul is an ancient Egyptian treat. You just can't attribute it to a levantine area.
Trade is also ancient. The Assyrian area was a conjunction to many caravans and food trades. Date is an ancient trade good. Pistachio and walnut are abundant produce in Lebanon and Syria.
Delighted to see my country represented on your channel! Thank you for trying ma'moul, I hope you enjoyed it! Ma'moul is also mainly prepared during Easter, with the different shapes having different meanings related to Christianity. Sahtein! ❤️ (=bon appétit in Lebanese!)
@@tray22nc Personally I like the tweezers better just because they look more unique😊 Although a nice thing about the molds is that they get passed down from generation to generation, so it's more traditional.
I'm lebanese and I've been watching ur videos for yeaaarss😁and let me tell you I'm really thrilled about this video representing our culture ❤️❤️❤️loveee u
It must be really delightful to be watched and loved so much all over the world. As a lebanese myself, I never thought that there are so many of us watching you. You know you did something good when you're loved all over the world! Peace to all.
So awesome that you’re sharing these!! They’re eaten all over the Levant (Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria etc). As a Christian Palestinian, we eat these for Easter. They’re very symbolic for us, the date cookies (we call them kaek b’ ajweh) are typically in a circle shape like a small donut with a hole in the middle and they represent the crown of thorns Jesus wore on his head. The one with nuts (maamoul) are symbolic of the sponge with vinegar Jesus was given while on the cross. Of course they’re also made for those celebrating Eid after Ramadan as well. Love that you made these and are sharing different cultures ❤️ if you’d like, you can see my video on these to get an idea of typical tools and molds we use to shape them! Great video!
I just wanna say how appreciative I am of Emmy always going in depth about cultures around the world. I am even more impressed that she did this during Ramadan and mentioned Eid which is so important to muslims around the globe.👏👏👏 Amazing work as usual, Emmy!
I have watched you feature so many different cultures on this channel. Now it’s my turn to feel all warm and fuzzy! As a Lebanese American my mom makes these during the holidays every year.
I was waiting for Emmy making lebanese food. Such a delight! This Video Made my day. My mother used to make Maamoul with my sister and me for special occasions. Thank you for bringing sweet memories back ♥️
@emmymade Yes, indeed! I Love cooking especially with family or just for the family (friends too) and i cherish every moment, even if it's just the reaction to the cookery. Little things build the whole beautiful picture of a memory♥️
Just before I go to bed I see a video just uploaded! Is it just me who else’s finds emmys videos so chill and relaxing to watch and listen as you about to sleep? ^•^
My Lebanese grandma doesn't like sweets so she never taught my parents or me how to make any, but this looks like something I could do. Thank you for highlighting it!
Hi Emmy. I just want to say thank you so much for making this dish. As a half-Lebanese person, ma'amoul is my favourite desert. For me, it tastes like home and celebration. As a long time fan of yours, this has made my day! As we say in Arabic, Sahten! (Doubly your health on you [enjoy your food])
Raised in a Palestinian family. Grew up eating Ma'amoul. Don't like the date ones but walnut and pistachio is a favorite. My family doesn't really like the rose water(besides me lol) so most of the time, we use orange blossom water.
Why do some ppl not like rose water? My sis hates it. She’s so weird. My grandma (sittoo) used to use it. Mmm. We’re a Lebanese family. My mom’s BFF (they both passed away 😢) was Palestinian. Big advocate for Palestine. These are so yummy.
Fun fact Orange flower water is popular in Spain. It’s called azahar, like the blossom itself. I found rose water too and I think that they have a kind of smell you have to adjust to :) In my opinion of course. Have a blessed Ramadan!
These are gorgeous! If anyone makes these and wants the molds check to see if you have a Halal grocery store around! I picked up some beautiful maamoul molds a while back from one(:
I bet you they're stamped "Halal" too. Why not, the orange juice I bought last week from my turkish corner shop was a turkish product marked you guessed it HALAL.
J'aime l'effort que tu mets a prononcer les plats dans leur langue d'origine. ça n'a l'air de rien pour certains, mais c'est tellement énorme pour moi :)
I love this video...I’m Palestinian/Jordanian and we make maamoul every year it’s so nice that right after I finish watching this video I’m going to make maamoul with my family it’s so fun to make and makes you feel the spirits of eid I love it!!...thank you for sharing your experience...maamoul is basically known all over the Arab community so happy you get to try it
The civilized way of taking Ma’moul out of the mold 😂 we don’t usually use plastic wrap we smash it till the neighbors know that we are making Ma’moul 😂
Arabian sweets never get the recognition they deserve! So very happy to see this recipe! 🥰 Thank you Emmy! Maybe i'll try those with an orange blossom water twist! Or both? Why not.
I love watching Emmy & Bery Shereshewsky videos... they give so much information with each project they take on... I love it... it's like having a history lesson
Thanks for sharing this with us and trying Lebanese cuisine. I am a big fan of you from years, and I am a Lebanese too. Lots of love and blessings to you Emma and all of you guys too.
When I was a teenager...many many moons ago; my passion was cooking and baking. One day I decided I was going to make all the Christmas cookies that year. Instead of making the traditional ones we made every year I decided to make a cookie from different countries. This mammol cookie was one of them. They were one of the favorites in the whole lot. I still have that recipe from way back then and still make it as part of my annual Christmas cookie bake. So delicate and yummy 😋
Emmyyy thank you soo much... I told you this before on Facebook (my name is Charbel) I discovered your channel when I was back in Lebanon a short while after I got kicked out of my parents house, your series Emmy eats watcha eating and hard times gave me soo many ideas on how to eat in a more affordable way and also discover new flavors and being open to try... So could you imagine the amount of nostalgia and good feelings this gave me? Thank you
My family immigrated from Turkey to Germany more than 40 years ago. My grandmother always made ma‘amoul and other dishes that I thought were common Turkish foods..turns out my (grand-)grand-grandparents also immigrated, but from Syria to Turkey. Thank you so much for trying out this recipe, it’s my favorite and I love seeing other people enjoying it! 🌻
lebanese here thank you for taking the time to try out middle eastern recipes and tell the world about this special desert in this special month of ramadan ❤️
OMG! I got so excited when I saw the title! I’m lebanese and I make these with my family every year. We fill ours with a mixture of pistachios, walnuts, and rose water. Typically we slam our mold on the table to get the cookie out. Never thought of plastic wrap lol.
First, I absolutely LOVE seeing all the comments from people that are happy to see something from their country/culture. Second, these look *sooo yummyyyy* ! I’m totally going to have to give these a try! ☺️
This brings back memories! My mom used to make these a lot, a long time ago... I remember when my grandmother visited from palestine and would sit down with my mom to make these. Definitley an underrated dessert, especially when made fresh!
AAAAAA!! IT'S 3:42 AM now AND I WAS SLEEPING THEN GOT THE NOTIFICATION OF THE VIDEO! I couldnt but comment thank you for making a lebanese recepe, lebanese cuisine is really delicious! Love from Lebanon!♥️
So cool! Next year you should try Kahk, it's so insanely buttery and sweet, one of the best parts of Eid is having it with your morning coffee/tea on the first day of Eid
Lol i'm working on it in the kitchen right now. The dough makes way more cookies than I thought 💭 Will have updates soon. Update: They're in the oven. The dough needed quite a few additions of milk throughout the process, but it is coming together beautifully so far. My house smells like it was kissed by an angel. Update Part 2: They came out pretty good. My dad ate four of them at once so I guess that's a win!
Yaaassss a lebanese recippeee 😍 maybe try making Sfouf as well. Its cake like and also uses semolina. Flavored with Turmeric and so easy and delicious 😍 Also try maamoul with "ashta" which is a thick cream. Even more delicious ♥️. Thank you emmy!
These sound just absolutely amazing. I NEED to try these. Going to buy the stuff to make these this upcoming week. Love seeing different cultures represented and learning from these videos. 💕
growing up persian, the ingredients in this cookie are familiar and tasty indeed, especially the taste/smell of rosewater. arab food is just so yummy too! I love middle eastern culture and am so happy its featuring on one of my fav channels
yaaaay , it's كحك العيد y'all 🤩🤩🤩❤❤❤ , which is pronounced " kahk el `eid" , which literally translates to The Feast Cookies sooo lovely to see my culture get recognised out there ❤❤❤❤❤❤ to all my Muslim brothers : عيد فطر سعيد عليكم , Happy Feast everybody , `Eid Elfitr is upon us ❤❤
I'm Lebanese American and really enjoy eating maamoul. I was excited to see this video, and thought you did an amazing job! Thanks Emmy, keep up the great content.
I love making and eating ma’amoul! I make mine with orange blossom water and my faves are the nutty ones, pistachio, walnuts, pecans and also with fig jam or butter!! Oh one year I made some with preserved loquats from my tree and those were AMAZING!! And I love them with a nice cup of cardamom tea!
I'm Israeli, iraqi, chilean and greek (dont ask, our family was all over the place) and I honestly think that arab cuisine is the best in the world. Fresh, healthy full of color and condiments yet not too overwhelming. and the desserts, OH MY GOD the deserts. If you never had Kenafeh you don't know what heavens taste like. I also recommend Katayef (in both the sweet and salty versions) and mastic ice cream - which I think would be an awesome experiment for Emmy to make (with real Mastika!)
I went to a multi-cultural end of Ramadan party once. Someone brought Maamoul...Like everything else in Arab desserts, they were amazing. All the food was. Food from so many different countries...I went home so stuffed and with so many take-away boxes...it was for real, one of the greatest nights of my life :D, my friends thought it was kind that I kept talking about it for weeks. I'm not joking, some of the best food I've ever eaten.
This recipe is originally from the celebration of Christian in the Levant area for Easter! Where the mamoul represents the crown of thorns of Jesus! The day this sweets are prepared is usually Good Friday which is 2 days before Easter Sunday. The day before Good Friday (Last Supper: Maundy Thursday) bread is made which is called Krass. Muslim loved the idea of Mamoul and started adopting it for their Eids. I hope you can verify the source of your info. Thanks
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! Seeing Emmy making these cookies brought back so many childhood memory when me and my family would spend all night making 10 Kg of these cookies.
Hehehe when i was in high school many many years ago i sucked at cooking. My aunt gave me a mamoul press and ever since my family enjoyed it 3 days a week. I was good at it. Another easy great recipe is date balls with crushed nuts , some people choose to cook it in butter and add with condenced milk. But i find it sweet as it is. Then roll them in coconut flakes . It's heavenly
As a Middle Easterner, I appreciate this video. I've been eating these cookies my entire life and the ones you made look really good ☺️ Thank you so much for mentioning Ramadan and Eid 🙏🏼
YES , I've made the Mamoul cookies a few times after eating them in Saudi Arabia a few times ! Delicious when warm . If I can't find the spices used I use fennel ground with cardamon and cinnamon. ! Good to see you making them ,thank you Emmy! 💖🥰👍
I’m Palestinian and have been watching you for years, so seeing this video made me really happy! You did such a great job!!!

I have watched you feature so many different cultures on this channel. Now it’s my turn to feel all warm and fuzzy! As a Lebanese American my mom makes these during the holidays every year.
As a Canadian Lebanese I feel the same. It’s our turn yay!!
As a German Lebanese too ! I just love them so much !
Rosewater & orange flower water were the ‘vanilla' of their day (for thousand years) before vanilla was discovered
Still are! :)
In Spain we still use orange flower in some desserts, clearly a Moorish heritage 😉
That moment you realized you watched 99% of her videos so now you are craving more 🤦🏽♀️😂🧡
I wouldn't say I watched 99 % but I do love her videos, they are always funny and she gives so much great ideas to try out
I can relate to this. Haven't watched every video, definitely have to go back probably like 6yrs tho to get to old ones I haven't watched

I've been a fan of yours for a long time, and now there's an episode about my country! Lots of love ❤
This recipe is originally from the celebration of Christian in the Levant area for Easter! Where the mamoul represents the crown of thorns of Jesus! The day this sweets are prepared is usually Good Friday which is 2 days before Easter Sunday. The day before Good Friday (Last Supper: Maundy Thursday) bread is made which is called Krass. Muslim loved the idea of Mamoul and started adopting it for their Eids. I hope you can verify the source of your info. Thanks
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! Seeing Emmy making these cookies brought back so many childhood memory when me and my family would spend all night making 10 Kg of these cookies.
I bought a mold right away for this Eid!! Excited!
The arabic pastries are by far one of the best in the world. Very unique, very warm flavors, very delicious *chef's kiss*
Hehehe when i was in high school many many years ago i sucked at cooking. My aunt gave me a mamoul press and ever since my family enjoyed it 3 days a week. I was good at it. Another easy great recipe is date balls with crushed nuts , some people choose to cook it in butter and add with condenced milk. But i find it sweet as it is. Then roll them in coconut flakes . It's heavenly
I just want Emmy to rule the world and heal everyone with how absolutely wonderful and intelligent and kind she is.
I was lucky enough to spend Ramadan 2014 in Oman. I was recently missing Ma3mul, I don’t like dates at all on their own, but loved these so much.
Fabulous as always Emmy! Such a joy to watch...interesting as always....Thank you 😊 ❤️ (Choo-choo)
So happy to see my country represented positively for once❤️❤️
