Hanim Samneh (Ghee) 1.5 kg

Hanim samneh is a ghee-style cooking fat, sold here as a single 1.5 kg pack. Samneh is a staple in Lebanese kitchens. It is commonly used to cook rice and bulgur, to fry onions and meat, and to give a rich taste to stews and soups. It is also a familiar ingredient in traditional sweets such as maamoul, knefeh and ghraybeh, which many families bake for holidays and gatherings. A larger pack like this suits households that cook often. You can find Hanim samneh on the shelf at Dekenet Al Nes in Baaqline, in the Chouf. Dekenet Al Nes is a package-free grocery store and solidarity initiative that aims to keep basic goods affordable while cutting waste, and customers are encouraged to bring their own containers to refill essential products.
