Jewish heritage
Jewish community of Morocco has historical ties to the Maghreb region dating back more than 2,000 years. During World War II, the Late King Mohammed V famously rejected an appeal by the French Vichy regime to gather up Moroccan Jews for deportation, reportedly responding: “We have no Jews in Morocco, only Moroccans.”

Moroccan Architecture
By its strictest definition, a Riad is an enclosed garden or courtyard (also spelled ‘Riyâd’ in some quarters). However, by popular usage, the term has come to represent traditional Moroccan homes, built around such an enclosure and more specifically those homes that have been renovated, restored, and opened to the public as intimate guesthouses.

Moroccan spices and herbs
The layered flavors of Moroccan cuisine typically take hours to develop; think of the famous tagines or b’steela, a savory pie made with saffron-spiced chicken (or pigeon) and sugared almonds. Spices play a big role in that layering, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a Moroccan dish that doesn’t include a good measure of them. We talked to the experts at the Spice House, a purveyor of spices, herbs, blends, and extracts, to find out which are the essential for Moroccan food.
