Maamoul: An Ancient Cookie That Ushers In Easter And Eid In The Middle East : The Salt For Christians and Muslims in the Middle East, maamoul is an essential part of Easter and Eid respectively. Stuffed with date paste or nuts, this buttery cookie dates back to ancient Egypt.
These cookies originated in ancient Egypt, where it is called kahk. No one knows how they became associated with Easter and Eid. Some say they are meant to remind people that at the end of the fasting period, there is a sweet reward, says Sawsan. The Jewish community in the region also loves maamoul.
" Maamoul is usually made a few days before Eid, then stored to be served with Arabic coffee and chocolate to the guests who come during the holiday," says Sawsan, who now lives in the United Arab Emirates. "Plates full of it are also exchanged as gifts between neighbors and relatives."
Mitri makes his maamoul with two kinds of semolina, and adds both rosewater and orange blossom to his walnut and pistachio fillings. He unleashes a blizzard of powdered sugar onto the nut-filled cookies before serving, but never on the date, "because it's already sweet."
