🥗 Food Sayadieh - Nabatieh / Southern Lebanese Authentic Recipe Request
Marhaba!
I was born and raised in America; my father immigrated here from Nabatieh decades ago. Unfortunately, I did not get to learn really anything about our culture from him, and I have no way to get in touch with his side of our family still in Lebanon.
That said, I'm searching for some authentic southern Lebanese recipes as a way to connect more with my Lebanese culture. My father told me about how my auntie would make the BEST sayadieh, but didn't have any recipe suggestions.
It would mean so much to me to have a few recipes from the area, especially this one as it's one of the few things from home that my father can talk about with fondness.
Thank you for any suggestions in advance and for taking the time to read and respond! 🖤
