“But this time I don’t put in a lot of spice, because some people don’t like it and I don’t want to hurt them.” The look on her face made me chuckle. Such a wonderful person.

Beautiful display of community and humanity. Thank you to El Matareya and its humble citizens for sharing this with Insider, and with us.

Um is not her first name, it's more of a honorific title given to her on the count of her first born child Mustafa, so Um Mustafa in shorts means "Mother of Mustafa ".

Well, coming from a muslim who prepares the food for iftar for their family, when you're preparing it you don't really notice the hunger. Really the only unfortunate thing is not being able to taste the food as you prepare it, and being unsure whether it tastes good. so you really need to know the recipes by heart. Actually that goes for all activities. When you're fasting you don't really notice the hunger unless you're not doing anything. Aside from fasting, ramadhan is a time for prayer, reflection, family, and charity, so if you're practicing it fully there's really no time or chance to feel the hunger.

What a wonderful way the tradition of iftar must be, to foster gratitude.

Mahashi is delicious and it deserve the hype if made right. you need to try it and the koshari I know they don't sound amazing but good ones are. there is many versions of Mahashi in Egypt and. many other countries I personally prefer my grandmother Mahashi.

As an Egyptein, I truely appreciate this video because it captures Egypt's image in the right way and does it justice

The whole experience is surreal. The closeness of their community, the spirit, the get together.. it's amazing to see😮

I truly appreciate seeing how other Countries celebrate their holidays. I enjoy seeing how their communities come together in cooking and having fun.

If everyone could get along like this more the world would be a better place

Calling Um Mustafa just Um is so funny, lmfao. Great video nonetheless.

Hard thing about fasting and cooking is that you unconsciously taste things while making them and to control that is really the hardest part.

Beautiful

What a fantastic celebration. I'd love to help and participate.

Masha'Allah. One of the wonderful Ramadan traditions.

I’m not Muslim so I don’t know if it would be allowed (or appropriate) but when the chef commented that the hardest part was making the meal while fasting because he isn’t able to taste it. My immediate thought was what if they had a member of a different religious community taste the food as it is cooked so the chefs are able to make sure it is properly seasoned. As I mentioned before I am not Muslim and I know very little about what goes into meal preparation for breaking the fast for Ramadan, so this idea is from an outsider perspective.
