Mahlab

Mahlab is a traditional spice made from the ground seeds of the mahaleb cherry. It has a delicate aroma with slightly sweet and nutty notes, often compared to almond and cherry flavors. Mahlab is commonly used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean baking. It is added to breads, cookies, pastries, and festive desserts to give them a unique aroma and flavor. The spice is often used in traditional recipes for holiday breads and pastries, where its subtle fragrance enhances the overall taste of the baked goods. Net Weight: 3 oz. To preserve freshness and aroma, store Mahlab in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and keep the container tightly sealed when not in use.
