Moroccan Cuisine
About Moroccan Food
Moroccan food is one of the most cleverly balanced cuisines on earth; spices are used to enhance the flavour of dishes and there is nothing like the warm waft of beautiful spices that seduce you when you open the lid of a tajine. The essence of Moroccan food is a communal style of eating, with many dishes shared by the family. The meal time is very social and eaten at a leisurely pace with much laughter and talking.
When entering a Moroccan home, you would be offered food and usually tea within a heartbeat. Hospitality is a very important part of Moroccan culture and making guests welcome is also part of the Islamic teaching.

Hot Tips
Bread crumbs
You can easily turn unused bread into breadcrumbs. Lightly dry the bread in a moderate oven and then pulse in a food processor until desired coarseness. Do not use stale bread as this will result in stale tasting bread crumbs.
Glossary
