We now have a range of our Moroccan flavors for you to take home. Available in store or for wholesale distribution.

 

Argan Oil
Argan Oil comes from the nut of the Argan tree, which up until recently was relatively unknown as it only grows on a small area in the south west of Morocco. Cherished for centuries by Moroccan Berbers, Argan oil has now captured the attention of the modern world. When compared to olive oil, Argan oil is a stronger, richer grown oil, which is cold pressed, slightly darker than olive oil, has a nutty flavor and is high in nutritional value. Throughout Morocco, it is commonly used in salads, tajines and couscous, to marinate roasted peppers and tomatoes and to enhance semolina dishes. Recently, Argan oil has entered European cuisine, introduced by chefs inspired by its unusual flavor. Internationally, it has also gained attention for its cosmetic and nutritional properties. Argan oil contains Omega 6, has twice as much Vitamin E as olive oil, has anti-inflammatory properties beneficial for arthritic or rheumatic conditions and is known to help reduce your cholesterol levels.

The Original Preserved Lemon
Preserved lemons, one of the most widely used ingredients in Morocco, are lemons, which have been pickled in salt and their own juices. Also called pickled lemons, they add a salty, distinctive lemon flavor to Moroccan tajines, sauces and salads. Although they are essential to many Moroccan recipes, personal taste dictates how preserved lemons might be used. Some cooks always remove the flesh, for example, while others leave it on when adding preserved lemon to tajine's and sauces. In salads, however, only the finely chopped rind is usually used. Both the saltiness and pungency can be controlled by how much preserved lemon is used, and when the lemons are added to the dish. The longer the lemons simmer in the sauce, the more salt and lemon flavor that will be released.
