❓ Frequently asked questions

How do I prepare walnuts for maamoul filling?
Grind them coarsely, then mix with sugar and spices, and stop before they turn into a paste.

Should I toast the walnuts first?
A light toast suits baklava and muhammara, while maamoul usually uses them raw.

Is 500 g enough for a home batch of maamoul?
Yes, it covers a generous home batch, and leftovers keep well in a sealed container.

How long does delivery outside Riyadh take?
1 to 3 working days.

📦 Storage

Keep the walnuts in a tightly sealed container away from heat and humidity. The fridge is best for longer storage, so the flavour stays clean between baking sessions.
