Mouneh | Voorraad: A special dinner with Chef Sami Tamimi

About

Chef Sami Tamimi has curated a special six-course vegetarian dinner, inspired by his cookbook Boustany. He has developed a recipe for every course. Tamimi will be in the kitchen in Amsterdam himself, overseeing the entire cooking process, from preparing herbs to stirring the pans. He will take you through a menu that revolves around Mouneh (traditional preservation techniques), seasonal products, and special ingredients. With each course, he will share the background and stories behind the dishes. What guests will discover this evening Authentic flavours, combined with refined wines and non-alcoholic drinks, historical preservation techniques and the culinary relationship between food, the seasons and the land. Stories about family recipes for Mouneh, traditions, heritage and migration. The revaluation of cooking with ingredients from the pantry. What similarities are there between the Al-Sham region and the diverse cultures of Amsterdam. And perhaps the most important discovery: the pleasure of eating the dishes that come from the delicious, signature cuisine of chef Tamimi together. From Sami's perspective, this evening forms a bridge between the culinary traditions of the Al-Sham region and the diverse audience of Amsterdam. The evening shows how preserving food connects cultures all over the world.
