    Arabian Tea House õą¥ý¦ûÇ Zaman Awaal (Old Dubai) Did you know that the UAE’s rich history is rooted in trade! The Creek significance can be traced back to 1902, when HH Sheikh Maktoum bin Hasher- the previous ruler of Dubai – abolished all customs duties on imports, essentially creating a free trade zone. Also, the strategic geographical location attracted traders from Europe, Fareast, China, India and Arabian Peninsula. Since then Dubai became a major trading hub, with much of the activity centered around the Creek.

  • By Jonathan Hayes Surbhi Sahni, Pastry Chef, Devi, New York City I
    By Jonathan Hayes Surbhi Sahni, pastry chef, Devi, New York City I was raised Hindu in Delhi by a conservative Brahmin mother, but my father was very open- minded, so I went to a Catholic school and had many Indian Catholic friends. I loved that they celebrated Christmas very much the way we celebrated Diwali, the Festival of the Lights, with candles and fireworks. I'd sneak off to their houses and eat Christmas cake filled with candied fruit, being sure to hide the crumbs before I went home. One day my brother brought home a plastic Christmas tree—he was braver than I was. After that, we began to celebrate Christmas. I've made my friend's mom's Christmas cake from memory, adding dried figs because they're so delicious, and more of the warm, spicy ginger we love so much in India. Bring an exotic Indian flavor straight to your family table with the warm, spicy ginger in this delicious holiday dessert. Fig Cake Recipe Courtesy of Surbhi Sahni Servings: Makes one 6-inch cake (about 12 servings) You can use a 6-inch ovenproof soufflé dish or straight-sided casserole in place of the cake pan, if necessary. Ingredients Cake: • 2 cups finely chopped dried Calimyrna figs (about 10 ounces) • 1 Tbsp. freshly grated ginger • 1/4 cup rum • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (about 1 medium orange) • 8 Tbsp. (1 stick) butter , room temperature, plus more for pan • 1 cup flour , plus more for pan • 1 tsp. baking powder • Pinch salt • 1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar • 1/4 cup honey • 3 eggs , room temperature • 1 tsp.

  • National Dish
    National dish From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_dish A national dish is a culinary dish that is strongly associated with a particular country.[1] A dish can be considered a national dish for a variety of reasons: • It is a staple food, made from a selection of locally available foodstuffs that can be prepared in a distinctive way, such as fruits de mer, served along the west coast of France.[1] • It contains a particular 'exotic' ingredient that is produced locally, such as the South American paprika grown in the European Pyrenees.[1] • It is served as a festive culinary tradition that forms part of a cultural heritage—for example, barbecues at summer camp or fondue at dinner parties—or as part of a religious practice, such as Korban Pesach or Iftar celebrations.[1] • It has been promoted as a national dish, by the country itself, such as the promotion of fondue as a national dish of Switzerland by the Swiss Cheese Union (Schweizerische Käseunion) in the 1930s. Pilaf (O'sh), a national dish in the cuisines of Central Asia National dishes are part of a nation's identity and self-image.[2] During the age of European empire-building, nations would develop a national cuisine to distinguish themselves from their rivals.[3] According to Zilkia Janer, a lecturer on Latin American culture at Hofstra University, it is impossible to choose a single national dish, even unofficially, for countries such as Mexico, China or India because of their diverse ethnic populations and cultures.[2] The cuisine of such countries simply cannot be represented by any single national dish.
