Loved it! Can you guys show us how to make the creamy Kunefe? I only see Armenians making it on You Tube with walnuts but I know that they sell them at my local Armenian Pastry shops here in California.
I have a quick question if you can please answer it I’d appreciate it, I’ve never bought mahlab before and am not sure if it’s fresh or gone rancid because I have nothing to compare it with smell wise. I read that it’s supposed to smell like ground almonds and cherries, but it smells nothing like that, it smells like very mild wood shavings, that’s the closest I can get to explain to you how it smells. The expiration date is not until six months from now, so I don’t know and I don’t want to ruin the recipe by putting in a spice that’s gone bad. Can you help me out here please? Thank you!
I don't buy it already ground. I don't trust that it's pure. I have done that once in the past and it smelled very faint. I buy unground and keep it in the freezer. When l am ready to use it, l grind it in a spice grinder. I mix some flour to be able to grind fine. Then l pass it through a sieve so as to avoid large unground pieces.
