Mustapha's Moroccan Preserved Lemons

By: Haddouch Gourmet, Inc.
Our price:

  • TRADITIONAL MOROCCAN CONDIMENT, USED IN 50% OF MOROCCAN COOKING
  • THEIR UNIQUE PICKLED TASTE AND SPECIAL SILKEN TEXTURE CANNOT BE DUPLICATED WITH FRESH LEMON
  • USE THE RIND IN STEWS, WITH CHICKEN AND FISH, ALSO IN SPREADS
  • IN MOROCCO THEY ARE KNOWN AS "HAMAD MURAQQAD" AND SOLD LOOSE IN THE SOUKS

Product Description

A classic Moroccan ingredient, preserved lemons lend an almost indecipherable flavor to a whole host of Moroccan dishes such as couscous, lamb and vegetables tagines, recipes for chicken and fish, and all manner of salads. The 'lemonness' you expect is softened and sour and salty elements combine with a hint of sweetness for an entirely new flavor experience. Mustapha's preserved lemons are cured and packed in a mild brine solution, which transforms the once bitter lemon rind into a completely different ingredient, one that you will find both enticing and indispensable, and not just for Moroccan cuisine. As Paula Wolfert - the world famous author of many cookbooks on Mediterranean cuisines - notes, "their unique pickled taste and special silken texture cannot be duplicated with fresh lemon or lime juice, despite what some food writers have said." Preserved lemons are usually rinsed to remove excess saltiness, and the rind can be blanched to remove even more of the saltiness. You can use the entire lemon if you wish, but the flesh is most often used in stews. Try slicing preserved lemons thinly and tucking them into a fragrant stew or lentil dish, bake with fish or lamb or toss in a fresh vegetable salad. A twist of preserved lemon rind will make for one incredible martini. Preserved lemons are a common, though often unrecognized, flavor in Moroccan cooking. They are also an important ingredient throughout the rest of North Africa. The distinctive texture and flavor of preserved lemons is essential to not only traditional Moroccan cooking, but also to the contemporary cooking of the some of the best chefs in the South of France, Spain, England, and right here in the USA.

Moroccan Non-Pareil Capers - 3 Jars

By: A.B.H.
Our price:

  • $3 OFF THE REGULAR PRICE FOR A SET OF 3 JARS
  • NON-PAREIL CAPERS ARE THE MOST HIGHLY PRIZED DUE TO THEIR INTENSE FLAVOR
  • PERFECT FOR CHOPPING IN TAPENADES, DEEP FRIED AND SERVED OVER SALADS
  • IF THEY ARE TOO SALTY FOR YOUR PALATE YOU MAY SOAK THEM IN COLD WATER
  • CAPER BUSHES GROW WILD AROUND THE MEDITERRANEAN, FLOURISHING IN THE SAME CLIMATES AS OLIVES

Product Description

Capers, the flower bud of a Mediterranean shrub are a very versatile ingredient, condiment, flavor, and tradition. Their flavor, when cured in brine, tends to be reminiscent of a cornichon or gherkin. They are vibrant, aromatic with just the right balance of salt. The most prized capers are the tiny non-pareil, "without peer" because of their intense flavor. Caper flower buds grow quickly, and they are small enough to be classified this size for only a very short time. Varieties are selected for flavor and for the roundness and firmness of the buds. Most capers are packed in vinegar, and this imparts a pickled flavor to them - as a result, the tangy finish tends to dominate the flavor of the aromatic caper. Mustapha cures his capers in salt brine, and then packs them in saltwater with just a tiny amount of vinegar. The result is a deep aromatic, salty flavor with a hint of a tang on the finish. These brined capers are perfect for use with rich foods such as salmon or in rich sauces. The caper bush is a spiny, straggling vine-like shrub that grows well in nutrient poor, gravelly soils, and is often found growing in crevices between rocks. Capers are the flower buds from this plant. A freshly picked caper is a bland little thing. That fabulously vibrant, piquant flavor comes from the curing process. Their salty, aromatic flavor makes them an important ingredient to sauces like tartar, ravigote and rèmoulade and most tapenade recipes. There is no better condiment for smoked or cured salmon.

Moroccan Dry-Cured Black Olives - 3 Jars

By: A.B.H.
Our price:

  • WONDERFULLY INTENSE FLAVOR, SLIGHTLY BITTER WITH A HINT OF CHERRIES
  • MAKE A MOROCCAN BREAKFAST, ADD OLIVE OIL, GARLIC, LEMONS AND CUMIN AND EAT WITH BREAD
  • MOROCCAN DRY-CURED OLIVES ARE PERFECT FOR ANY USE, FROM TABLETOP TO COOKING
  • A CENTURIES OLD, QUINTESSENTIALLY MOROCCAN CURED BLACK OLIVE

Product Description

Ripe Moroccan Picholine olives are the starting point for this traditional, centuries-old cure from Morocco. Layers of olives are alternated with layers of salt, and the olives are left to cure for weeks. Wonderfully intense in aromatic flavor they possess hints of black cherry and plum and have a slightly bitter finish. These wrinkled black olives remain meaty and full of deep smoky qualities without being overly salty. Without a doubt these are one of the most flavorful ingredients in Moroccan cooking. Moroccan Dry-cured olives are perfect for any use, from tabletop to cooking. They are an excellent accompaniment to a pre-dinner drink or glass of wine. They are a delicious counterpoint to green olives, and they can be used in Moroccan tagines or braised meats or stews of your own invention. Try pitting and chopping them to use in salads. These olives are just another example of authentic Moroccan flavor brought to you by Mustapha Haddouch. Moroccan cuisine is considered one of the most important cuisines in the world. Over the last two millennia the indigenous Berber peoples have endured invasion and conquest, each culture that came left its mark on the land, its people, their cuisine, from the first Phoenician traders to the last French colonizers. A wealth of culinary creativity and the amazing quality of the bounty of ingredients from the everyday to the exotic make Morocco a culinary mecca. Introduced and re-introduced over the centuries, olive cultivation is central to Moroccan cuisine and culture. One can understand then why the Moroccans are masters of curing and marinating and infusing olives, and why they eat olives with just about every meal, even breakfast.

Mustapha's Moroccan Caperberries - 3 Jars

By: A.B.H.
Our price:

  • $3 OFF THE REGULAR PRICE FOR A SET OF 3 JARS
  • THEY GROW WILD AROUND THE MEDITERRANEAN, FLOURISHING IN THE SAME CLIMATES AS OLIVES
  • PERFECT IN MARTINIS, ANTIPASTI OR AS IS
  • CAPERBERRIES ARE CURED IN A SALTWATER AND VINEGAR BRINE

Product Description

Caperberries - alcaparrones in Spanish - are the fruit of the caper bush, Capparis Spinosa. Caperberries resemble a large elongated grape with white stripes. Mustapha's caperberries are brine-cured in vinegar and salt, providing a somewhat tangy and nutty taste, which is not as strong or flavorful as a caper - their texture is often reminiscent of a cornichon. It has a much less intense flavor than a caper. They are preserved in water, vinegar, and salt. Caperberries can be eaten like olives; in fact, they can make an interesting alternative in a martini. Use these crunchy, mildly tangy Moroccan caperberries in salads, antipasto, or tapas. They are great accompaniments to cheese or ham. Their flavor tends to be a bit more pickle-like with a tangy, slightly sour flavor.
