Make it or buy it. Muhammad. I bought this Muhammad in the store, but how does it compare to the homemade version in price, ingredients, and taste? Let’s find out. Start by roasting your peppers over an open flame. Then cover for 10 minutes and peel. Using a dough scraper makes this part so much easier. In a mortar and pestle, combine garlic, salt, chili flakes, walnuts, bread crumbs, your peppers, lemon juice, pomegranate molasses, and olive oil. The result is an incredible dip. Oh my god. Now, let’s compare. Price-wise, homemade is four times cheaper. Ingredient wise, homemade is a lot cleaner. Tastewise, it’s incomparable. So make it.

  1. I always found storebought Muhammara to be disgusting. Kinda curious now how it would taste freshly made. Thanks.

  2. Isn't it that all those mediteranian food from the supermarket tastes less good than their Original counterpart?

  3. Do you have an alternative for roasting on a gas stove? I am coocking on induction.

    Verder lekker bezig, leuk kanaal!

    Als Duitstalige moedertaalspreker was ik altijd gefascineerd door het feit dat tot op de dag van vandaag nog nooit ook maar één Nederlander met wie ik persoonlijk heb gesproken (ongeacht zijn of haar opleidingsniveau), ook maar een vleugje bewustzijn leek te hebben van de neiging de s ergens tussen /s/ en /ʃ/ uit te spreken
