Description
Experience the authentic taste of Palestine with Alard Maftoul, a traditional hand-rolled pearl couscous crafted by women’s cooperatives. Made from a blend of high-quality bulgur and whole wheat flour, these large, nutty grains offer a satisfyingly chewy texture that stands up beautifully to hearty stews and bold spices. Unlike standard couscous, Maftoul is steamed and sun-dried, preserving its artisanal integrity and deep flavor profile. It serves as the perfect base for the iconic Palestinian dish of the same name, typically paired with tender chicken, chickpeas, and aromatic caraway. Whether used in warm winter bowls or chilled Mediterranean salads, Alard Maftoul brings a touch of heritage and wholesome nutrition to your dining table. A pantry essential for those who appreciate slow-food traditions and authentic Middle Eastern flavors.
