Description
Mlabbas (Syrian Arabic) and Noghl (Iranian Persian) or Nuql (Afghan Persian) or sugar-coated almonds is a traditional Syrian Iranian and Afghan confection. It is made by boiling sugar with water and rose water and then coating roasted almonds in the mixture. It can also be made with other nuts such as walnuts or other items. Noghl is often eaten along with tea.
Noghl is often included in Syrian Iranian and Afghan weddings which are based on ancient Arabic / Persian / Afghan ceremonies. As part of the wedding celebration an often lavish spread of food is prepared at the home of the bride. Included among the food is an assortment of pastries and sweets including noghl which is typically paid for by the groom. In many places in both Iran and Afghanistan Noghl (Nuql) is showered on the bride and groom much like confetti in Western countries would be.
Also known as noghl or nuql these sweet crunchy delicacies are made with sugar-coated slivered almonds and fragranced with rose water. Traditionally used to shower the bride and groom at Persian and Afghan weddings this delicacy is enjoyed alongside tea. Also enjoyed on Nowruz Persian New Year.
