The Key to Irresistible Stretch: The Secret Cheese in Halawet el Jibn Dessert | Plus mum's Tips

📝 A Note From Rouba
The key to making this dessert is to work the cheese over the heat until it becomes smooth and stretchy, giving it the perfect texture. If you don't have access to sweet cheese, you can use regular mozzarella cheese instead. Just be sure to soak it in water for a couple of hours beforehand to remove the excess salt.
Halawet el jibn is a sweet and delicious Middle Eastern dessert that's perfect for any occasion.
🥣 Ingredients
1cup sugar
1 1/4 cup water
3/4 cup fine semolina500 grams of sweet cheese mozzarella or see notes above
2 tablespoons rosewater
2 tablespoons orange blossom

    this sweet is both Syrian and Lebanese just like many food items are accross multiple countries and like many same words are used in many languages that are so different. That’s the beauty. No nationalism please.

    you can use shredded mozzarella however if you don't have access sweet mozzarella, you will need to soak it in water for a few hours to get the salt out. most cheese bought from the supermarket is salty unless specified.
