Minnie's Egyptian do'a

We make our own do'a following an old Egyptian recipe handed down from my mother.  It is different from the various do'a we see on the market today that are made essentially from thyme-zaatar. 

The traditional Egyptian do'a is made from apricot kernels, coriander seeds, and sesame seeds, lightly roasted to bring out their flavors and then ground and mixed. We add a little sea salt to the mix and you may choose to add hot pepper-chili to it if you like.

The coriander and the sesame are grown on our premises following safe agriculture practices. In other words we do not use pesticides and do not spray our plants. We use our own compost and natural animal fertilizers. 

People are sometimes leery when they hear that we use apricot kernels. I am posting this link to reassure you about these kernels and to encourage to taste this wonderful condiment.
