Muhammara

Cultural Context

Muhammara, originating from Aleppo, Syria, is a vibrant dip made primarily from roasted red peppers and walnuts. Traditionally enjoyed with bread, it reflects the rich culinary heritage of the Levant, where flavors of spice and sweetness intertwine. Today, it has gained popularity beyond the Middle East, often featured in mezze platters worldwide.
