Why Is Syrian Sheep Ghee the Pinnacle of Middle Eastern Ghee?
Syrian Awassi Sheep Ghee is celebrated as the absolute pinnacle of clarified butterfat in traditional Middle Eastern cuisine. This supremacy is rooted in heritage Awassi sheep grazing on wild aromatic pastures in Deir ez-Zor and the Euphrates Basin, nourishing on wild wormwood and steppe botanicals.
Characterized by its natural ivory tone and dense granular crystal grain, pure sheep ghee provides the signature floral fragrance behind world-renowned Damascene pastries and grand banquet feasts.
