Almond Sellou

Community Feedback

If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. A particularly rich version of Sellou where the proportion of roasted almonds is significantly increased, making it more of an almond paste. 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.
