Palestinian Sumac Spice Jar: The finest sumac grown in Hebron and transported to Bethlehem for drying and crushing by the oldest spice makers in the region. Treasured for its zesty, citrusy notes and ability to lift any dish, you’ll find sumac in many of the dishes and cocktails served at akub.
Bag of Maramiya (Sage): Enjoy the aromatic, soothing essence of dried Palestinian sage. Infuse with water to create a cleansing tea or add into marinades to bring an earthy, sweet-yet-savoury flavour. You’ll find lots of ways to use this cherished Palestinian herb throughout Fadi’s cookbook, Bethlehem.
Freshly Ground Arabic Coffee: Experience the rich, bold taste of Arabic coffee sourced from the oldest coffee roaster in Bethlehem. This particular blend is Chef Fadi’s favourite, combining dark and blond roasted coffee with cardamom to add a subtle warmth and floral note.
Fadi's Teta Julia's Cake: Following Fadi’s grandmother’s recipe, this richly spiced cake is packed with Palestinian dates, walnuts, dried figs and apricots, and date molasses. A recipe that’s very close to Fadi’s heart and one that symbolises Christmas for the whole of his family. You can also find the recipe on page 230 of Fadi’s cookbook, Bethlehem.
Zaytoun Products:
Zaytoun Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Cold-pressed from olives handpicked by Palestinian farmers, this premium olive oil adds authentic, fruity richness to your culinary creations. At akub, we use it in many of our dishes including our Bukjet Mousakhan and Dagga Ghazzawieh.
Zaytoun Medjool Dates: Grown in Jericho, these dates are naturally sweet, succulent, and wholesome. Perfect for snacking on or adding to desserts such as Fadi’s Teta Julia’s Cake (recipe on page 230 of Bethlehem).
Zaytoun Green Wheat Freekeh: A rich aromatic wheat grain harvested by Palestinian farmers in Jenin while it’s still green. The grains are then flame-roasted before the husks are rubbed off, giving freezer its distinctive smoky taste. Freekeh retains a wonderful texture in cooking, making it ideal for salads, soups, and risottos, such as the Freekeh risotto you’ll find on our menu at akub.
