How can you give a Middle Eastern twist to desserts?
Middle Eastern desserts, such as kunafa, baklava and many others, are champions of texture, crunch and freshness. And with these pro tips, one can bring these flavours home:
You can add orange blossom water and rose water in different mousses, ice cream and cream caramel for some instant flavour.
Dates are an amazing option if you want to tweak your sticky toffee pudding. Add dates, and finish with honey caramel.
Use pistachios in abundance. You can add them crushed or powdered to your sponge cake and cream ganache filling to enhance the whole experience.
Dried Iranian rose petals can give essential flavours and aromas to various European desserts. One can use them in ice cream and tarts.
