Unsalted White Cheese (such As Nabulsi Or Akkawi)

Kanafeh is a rich and sweet Middle Eastern dessert made with shredded phyllo dough or semolina dough, filled with soft cheese, and soaked in aromatic sugar syrup. It is cherished for its contrasting textures of crispy crust and gooey cheese, often garnished with crushed pistachios. This dessert holds cultural significance as a celebratory dish during religious and festive occasions in Syria and the Levant.
