Pastilla
Pastilla (, also called North African pie) is a meat or seafood pie in Maghrebi cuisine made with ''warqa'' dough (), which is similar to filo. It is a specialty of Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia, where its variation is known as malsouka. It has more recently been spread by emigrants to France, Israel, and North America. History The name of the pie comes from the Spanish word ''pastilla'', meaning either "pill" or "small pastry", with a change of p to b common in Arabic. The historian Anny Gaul attests to recipes that bear "a strong resemblance to the stuffing that goes inside modern-day bastila" in 13th century Andalusi cookbooks, such as ibn Razīn al-Tujībī's . This recipe, in Gaul's words, calls for "cooking pigeon with cinnamon, almonds, saffron, onion, and eggs, as well as a double-cooking process similar to today's conventional recipe, by which the ingredients are first cooked in a pot and then finished in the oven." The historian Idriss Bouhlila lists the dis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
