Middle Eastern Dumpling

The Dakwar family and their recipes have stood the test of time and their middle eastern dumpling are a family favorite.  Imm Amen which we affectionately call Taayta keeps the family heritage passed on to the next generation.  Everyday we would have our dinner at 2pm, which we spent the morning making in earnest.  I was privileged to learn from her these recipes and their families time honored traditions.

They are a very sociable culture and generous to a fault.  I love every bit of their personality, community, and generosity.   Our days were lazily spent, cooking, and drinking tea having a great conversation. I have learned much from this family, therefore I will carry throughout my life their examples of culture.

I desire to share their family table with you, which is the fabric of their life, and their meal is the stitch that links them together literally.
