Muhallebi is a creamy milk pudding originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, with roots tracing back to Persian and Ottoman culinary traditions. Traditionally, it’s made with milk, sugar, and rice flour or cornstarch, resulting in a smooth and delicate texture. Sometimes flavored with rose water or orange blossom water, it offers a subtle aromatic experience. Muhallebi is often garnished with nuts like pistachios or almonds and may be accompanied by syrup or fruit toppings. While it contains calcium and protein from milk, making it beneficial for bone health, its sugar content can make it calorie-dense if consumed in large portions. Variations using low-fat milk or natural sweeteners can make it a lighter alternative for those mindful of their health. A delightful dessert, Muhallebi remains a versatile treat appreciated for its simplicity and elegance.
