About Simbousik
Simbousik, originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, is a small, savory pastry often enjoyed as an appetizer or snack. These bite-sized delights are typically made with a golden, flaky dough that encases a variety of fillings, such as spiced ground meat, cheese, or spinach. Rich in flavor, Simbousik showcases a blend of aromatic herbs and spices like cumin, sumac, and parsley, giving it a distinctive taste. While its fillings can offer nutrients like protein, calcium, and fiber, its dough, often fried, contributes to a higher calorie count and fat content. Health-conscious versions can be baked or made with whole-grain flour to reduce fat and increase fiber. Perfect for gatherings, Simbousik combines indulgent textures with cultural richness, but like many pastries, it’s best enjoyed in moderation within a balanced diet.
