Foul

Cultural Context

Foul, a staple of Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly in Egypt and the Gulf states, is traditionally enjoyed as a hearty breakfast or light meal. Made primarily with fava beans, it reflects the region's agricultural roots and the importance of legumes in the diet. Today, variations of foul can be found across the world, often adapted with local spices and ingredients, making it a beloved dish in many cultures.
