Ghoriba with Walnuts (Macaron Marocain)
Welcome to my table! A chewy, gluten-free cookie made entirely of ground walnuts, sugar, and eggs, often compared to a rustic macaron. Rooted deeply in our Berber and Andalusian heritage, this is more than just a dish—it's a story told through spices. Trust me, you'll need plenty of crusty bread to soak up every last drop.

If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. Traditionally Moroccan "Biscotti". Twice-baked crunchy cookies filled with almonds, raisins, and anise seeds. Rooted deeply in our Berber and Andalusian heritage, this is more than just a dish—it's a story told through spices. Trust me, you'll need plenty of crusty bread to soak up every last drop.
