Hello Ahmed,
In my search for a recipe for "Basbosa" (this is how my husband spelled it) I found your site. First, I was thrilled to find the recipe and can't wait to make it. It is my husbands favorite sweet dish. Second, I just got back from Egypt a few weeks ago and wish I had seen your site before! You have some very useful information. We are currently waiting for my husbands visa to process so I have some time to perfect a few recipes, read up on Egypt and it's people and will definitely need the flight info again soon. You are doing a great service!
Thank you!! Tina Gadalla

Subject: Question about pigeons recipes
Hello Ahmed,
I have a friend who lives in Cairo and he always tells me that his favorite food is pigeons. That's why I wanted to cook them, too. I searched for recipes and found your website with these recipes: http://members.cox.net/ahmedheissa/recpigon.htm
But I have a problem, I don't understand the difference between recipe number 3 and 4.. Are they both made in the oven? I'm just wondering because in one recipe it says "grilled" and in the other one "roasted". But the rest is pretty much the same. Or did you mean by "grilling" that I have to grill the pigeons over an open flame?
Actually I wanted to prepare the pigeons like my friend's mother makes them, but he said his English isn't good enough to describe it, so I have to figure it out on my own. He did ask his mother for me though and she said that she cooks them first and then broils them. She said that way pigeons taste best... Do you maybe have a recipe where you first cook and then broil the pigeons? That would be awesome because I searched so much and was so happy to find an Egyptian site in English. It had to be Egyptian because everyone knows that Egyptian pigeons are the best. ;)
If you would help me, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you so very much in advance!!
By the way, please don't put this email or my email address on your website (I saw that you did that with other emails in your feedback section). Thank you again! :)
Kinde regards
Anja Schulz

Hell Anja,
Grilled in the oven "Broiled".
Roasted in the oven "Backed" 350 degree.
I do not have a recipe like my friend's mother makes them. It sound very good.
Thanks.

Subject: Rice with milk recipe

Mr. Ahmed Heissa,
Your recipe for milk and rice looks delicious. I am a kindergarten teacher at Fork Shoals School in South Carolina. As an IB school we do six planners, or courses of study each year. We do our best to incorporate an understanding of other cultures. We are finishing a planner on foods that are alike and different around the world. As part of that planner we are hosting an Egyptian feast. My problem with the recipe for milk and rice is that I do not have an oven. I'm wondering if it is possible to use a crock pot? If so what adjustments do I need to make?

Do you have a favorite recipe that you would like to share with a class of five year olds? We love an authentic perspective.
Thank you
Tammy

Dear Tammy,
I don't think a crock pot would work. It needs to bake in an oven. Most of my recipes need an oven to taste better.
One idea for your class would be to buy halvah a sweet confection made from sesame seeds that can be bought in supermarkets. It comes in different flavors. I like vanilla. In Egypt we cut small pieces of halvah and put it in pita bread. It is often eaten for breakfast. When you buy it, buy the plain, not the one with nuts. The brand we have in our state is Joya Halvah which is made in New York. If your local supermarket does not carry it, try a Middle Eastern or Indian grocery store.
Good luck. Ahmed Eissa

Greetings from San Antonio, Texas.

It was a long time ago and I guess I must resign to learning to make the wonderful food for myself as it has been since 1993 since I had a good home cooked Middle Eastern meal. I can only pray that my friends are safe and happily married like their American friends they have left behind here in San Antonio.

Hello Ahmed,
I visited Egypt few months ago and had the majority of my body waxed by an Egyptian woman. She used sweet and I found it most effective. She made a batch for me to take home and gave me the recipe to make my own. However, the time when the sugar should be taken off the heat is really tricky to master and I've already tried over 20 times and never suceeded. I found the tip on your site saying that the temperature should reach 350F-360F, which is about 180C. so I bought a candy thermometre and waited for it to reach the desired temperature. But despiete the long cooking o gentle fire it never even got close to reaching the desired temperature and it all started burning. Later on, on another site I found the listing of temperatures for various candy stages and it said that a "hardball stage" for a candy is at temperature of 250F-266F, which is about 121C-130C. I don't mean to be rude or anything, but is it possible that you made a mistake the regarding temperature at which the "sweet" should be turned off?
Warm regards,

Hi Dotty,
A Muslim man can marry up to 4 women at the same time. Non Muslims have a different law in Egypt. If you already married in Egypt and you are Egyptian then, there is no need to go to the consulate (not the embassy). If you married outside Egypt, then, you must go to the consulate to record it or remarry. The best thing to do is to call the consulate and ask them.

ON the web site it says for a goof proof way to let it come to 350F - 360F I did this and had a glass like mixture. Are those the right temps please? Thank you so much for your time.

Dear Ahmed,
I just found your Web site and loved reading one of the feedback files. You seem to be very helpful with questions about food, and I have a few. My name's Steve, I'm an American living in Austria. I recently bought something to try from an Egyptian on a local market. The name on the label is baldy, and it's a thick paste made of cheese, oil and spices. I understood that it's some kind of aged cheese and that it's used to dress tomatoes for a salad with olive oil drizzled on top. Do you know or can you tell me where I can find out more about this?
My other question's about a kind of konafah with a layer of cheese in the middle. Do you know what kind of cheese is used or can you help me find a recipe?
Thanks in advance if you can help me in any way, Steve

Dear Steve,
Sorry, I do not really know what you taking about.
You should go or call the nearest Islamic center to you, find an Egyptian woman and ask her or wait until you go Egypt.
I never ate Konafa with cheeses.

Hello Ahmed
I found the receipt of Egyptian Sugar Wax (also known as “halawa sweet “) on your website.
Many thanks for this.
I was wondering if I could ask you a small question?
I would like to make a batch of this wax and then freeze it.
What I need to know is whether freezing the wax will affect the effectiveness of the wax?
If it can be frozen, for how long can it be in the freezer before its starts losing its effectiveness?
Thankyou
Marie

Hello Maria,
I'm very sorry to write you so late.
Freezing the wax will not affect the effectiveness of the wax.
Yes, it can be frozen, for a long time. It can be in the freezer before its starts losing its effectiveness.

Hello Ahmed
Thankyou for responding to my email. I really do appreciate it.
I hope you don’t mind, however I would like to ask you a few more questions regarding the wax.
In your opinion, once a fresh batch of wax has been made:
How long can the wax be frozen for before it starts to loose its effectiveness?
Can it be refrigerated and not frozen? Or will freezing better preserve the wax?
Is it better to use brown (raw) sugar or white sugar?
Is it better to freeze/refrigerate using glass or plastic container? Does it matter at all?
Do you have any instructions on how to heat the wax and apply it to the skin?
Are there any areas on the body (male & female) that the wax is not suitable for?
Once the wax is melted, how soon after can it be applied to the skin?
I understand that there are no right or wrong answers – just opinions. So I’ll be happy to hear your thoughts.
I hope I haven’t inundated you.
Once again, a big thankyou!!
Marie

Hello Maria,
In my opinion, a fresh batch of wax made is better than frozen.
Q. How long can the wax be frozen for before it starts to loose its effectiveness?
A. Not long.
Q. Can it be refrigerated and not frozen? Or will freezing better preserve the wax?
A. No. Wax is food. My mother used to give me a piece to eat all the time.
Q. Is it better to use brown (raw) sugar or white sugar?
A. My mother never used brown sugar. Try and find out.
Q. Is it better to freeze/refrigerate using glass or plastic container? Does it matter at all?
A. No one freeze using glass. Freeze it in plastic bags.
Q, Do you have any instructions on how to heat the wax and apply it to the skin?
A. Take it out of the freezer and wait until it defrost, then, warm it in a low heat.
Take a round ball of dough, pat it on your skin and pull it off. It will hurt. You can eat part of it before you use it.
Q.Are there any areas on the body (male & female) that the wax is not suitable for?
Use your judgment.
Q. Once the wax is melted, how soon after can it be applied to the skin?
A. Immediately, be careful do not make it too hot.
Good luck.
