Foul Medames… The Friday Flavor and Family Taste

Friday morning in Syria starts with an irreplaceable dish
In the memory of Syrians, nothing equals the warmth and joy of Friday morning. It is the day when everyone gathers after a long week around the breakfast table, where the smell of hot bread mixes with the sound of coffee being poured, and all eyes are on one dish that never moves from the middle of the table: Foul Medames. Whether you are in Aleppo where it’s prepared with tahini, in Damascus where it’s made with lemon and cumin, or in Homs and Latakia with their own styles… the fava bean is the common factor, the dish no home or region can do without despite the many differences.


Baladna brings Foul back to European homes as if you brought it straight from the Foul vendor

Amidst this emotional and spiritual presence of fava beans, Baladna has reintroduced this authentic dish with its rich flavor and perfectly plump large beans. The story starts from the bean itself; it is carefully selected, not randomly, chosen from the finest fava beans with smooth shells, large uniform size, and light blond color. It then undergoes precise stages of sorting, washing, and processing with the latest technology to ensure purity of taste and smooth texture without losing the original stature of the bean. Finally, it is packed in metal cans that preserve the flavor and perfectly imitate the taste of slow-cooked fava beans in homes, cooked just right — neither too hard nor too mushy.
