What's New This Month...

Egyptian Pear Rounds: We cut and dry the crunchy (khashaby) pears with no preservatives or color enhancers. These pears are peeled, cored and dried to a chewy state that brings out their delicate flavor. Try them in khoshaf or right out of the bag, they are a great snack.

Egyptian Mango Slices:  Mango season has just begun. The varieties are coming in one after the other, pleasing the palate and the sense of smell. And we too have begun drying them and making mango fruit rollups. Our fruit rollups have no sugar added and no preservatives; they are 100% natural fruit.

Egyptian Raisins: we use the original Egyptian seedless green/golden grapes (banati) to make these raisins. These raisins are a dark amber color and are sweet and chewy and delicious. Eat them with nuts or add them to cereal, oatmeal, rice or moussaka3a, you will just love them.
