You should have come over for dinner last night! Middle Eastern spiced meatballs and apricot and pistachio couscous with pita and lemon yogurt dip.
I used to recoil from anything that reminded me of Arabs as it reminded me of Islam. I wouldn’t even eat hummus Now that I know so many nonMuslim Arabs, Im able to separate the two-and I miss it so much. I miss the laughter, generosity and honesty of the Arabs And I miss the foodpic.twitter.com/sbzCoC7qgu

The food, oh Lordy! Lemonade with rose water? I thought I had gone to heaven. Cardamom-spiced coffee? Kanafeh? Lahmajoun? Za’atar? And that’s just for starters!

In my first few months in the Middle East, I ate only Levantine and Persian food.. Most Middle Easterners are simple spontaneous people.. good at heart.

Hummus isn’t even Arab – it’s Levantine – Levantine Christians and Mizrahi Jews eat it too.
