Beautiful Moroccan cooking

in #beautiful7 years ago

Moroccan cuisine has long been one of the most diverse cuisine in the world. This is due to Morocco's interaction with the outside world for centuries. Moroccan cuisine is a mix of Amazigh, Arab, Maghreb, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and African cuisine. Chefs in Moroccan cuisine over the centuries in Fez, Meknes, Marrakech, Rabat and Tetouan have created the basis for what is known as Moroccan cuisine today, Moroccan cuisine is the first Arab and African, and the second is the world after France.

The refugees fleeing the Abbasids left Baghdad in the Middle Ages and settled in Morocco, bringing with them the traditional recipes that have become commonplace in Morocco forgotten in the Middle East.

List of dishes in Morocco

The main meal among the people is the couscous, which is very old and was invented by the Amazigh. Chicken is the most common type of meat eaten in Morocco. The most common red meat in Morocco is beef and then lamb. The sheep in North Africa have a lot of fat concentrated in the tail, which means that the Moroccan lamb does not have the acute flavor, which is usually in Western sheep and give it an undesirable taste.

The most famous Moroccan Amazigh dishes are couscous, Bastille, Marouzia, Tagayn, Tangerine, Zallouq, Bisara, Harsheh, Malawai, Baghreer and Hreira. Although the latter is a soup, it is considered a complete meal and is usually served with dates during the month of Ramadan.

Another dessert is the honey buns, which is a piece of fried dough and immersed in a vase of honey with sesame seeds. Chocolates are sweets eaten during the month of Ramadan. Coke candy is a coconut cake, briyat, crunchle, graiaba, hamburger, slaw and squash.
Drinks

Tea Culture (Morocco)

The most popular drink is mint green tea. Traditionally, the preparation of mint tea in Morocco is considered a form of art and drinking with friends and family members is one of the most important rituals of the day. The method of pouring tea is as important as its quality. Tea is combined with cones or sugar cubes.
Moroccan fast food

The sale of traditional fast food on the street is commonplace for a long time, and the best example of this is Djemaa el Fna Square in Marrakech. Beginning in the 1980s, new restaurants began offering "bocadillo" (a Spanish word for Shatira, widely used in Morocco). The bocadillo is baguette baguette stuffed with salad and one of the types of meat, or similar tortilla, which is also a term widely used in Morocco.

During the 1990s, a new trend began to emerge. Dairy shops and new products (Mahlibah in Arabic Moroccan), which spread throughout the cities in Morocco. They generally offer all kinds of dairy products, juices and breakfast, as well as bocadillos, where they compete heavily with restaurants that have been around for years.

In the late 1990s, the country also saw the opening of multinational fast-food chains, especially in major cities such as McDonald's.فlt.jpgالمغرب-ثاني-أفضل-وجهة-لسائحي-العالم-من-محبي-الطعام.jpgwswq8iy2uyoxczm5dc0شئشئ.jpg
