Knafeh Khishneh
Knafeh Khishneh is a rustic and less refined version of the classic Knafeh, featuring a coarser semolina dough that provides a delightful chewiness and a slightly different texture compared to its finer counterpart. It's drenched in a fragrant sugar syrup and often topped with pistachios.
