Mhamara is a flavorful Middle Eastern dip or spread that originates from Levantine cuisine, particularly Syria and Lebanon. This dish is made primarily with roasted red peppers, walnuts, olive oil, breadcrumbs, garlic, lemon juice, and spices such as cumin and paprika. Some variations include pomegranate molasses, adding a tangy sweetness to its rich, smoky flavor. Packed with heart-healthy fats from walnuts and olive oil, Mhamara provides a good source of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. The peppers offer vitamins A and C, supporting immune health and skin vitality. However, depending on the recipe, it may contain added salt or breadcrumbs, which should be consumed in moderation for those managing sodium or carbohydrate intake. Often enjoyed with flatbreads, raw vegetables, or as a topping, Mhamara is a nutritious choice that brings vibrant taste and wholesome ingredients to the table.
