History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 Northern Lebanon📅 Traditional🍋 LB

Adas bi hamod means 'lentils with lemon'. It is a peasant dish, made from lentils, wild greens and garlic, which were cheap and easy to find in the villages.

It is especially popular during Lent, when many Lebanese families cook without meat, and on cold winter evenings.
