Iraqis call the mixture of Dibs and Tahini 'Iraqi Chocolate.' It is a simple and delicious blend of concentrated date syrup and sesame tahini.
Iraqi date syrup (Dibs), Tahini (sesame paste), and fresh Iraqi dates.
Iraq is the land of palm trees, so dates and their products are the backbone of nutritional life. Dibs and Tahini is the favorite winter breakfast and a symbol of hospitality in rural areas.
It is available in every grocery store. Cities like Karbala, Basra, and Hilla are famous for producing the best types of Dibs and dates.
Iraqi Dibs is made traditionally by boiling and filtering dates. The mixture is also used as a filling for pastries or a sauce over Kahi. 'Khastawi' dates are the favorite for eating with Tahini.
