Reposted from the web
Summary: Halal Food Guide: Beijing Ramadan Iftar — Five International Buffets is presented here as a firsthand travel account in clear English, beginning with this scene: Every year during Ramadan, having an Iftar buffet at one of the foreign restaurants in Beijing is a regular tradition for me. The account keeps its focus on Beijing Iftar, Ramadan Food, Halal Buffets while preserving the names, places, food, and historical details from the Chinese source.
The main course was couscous with tajine. Couscous is made from semolina shaped into small dry grains. Tajine uses a covered round pot. As the food cooks, the lid keeps the moisture inside and sends it back into the dish. Some pots have a small top opening for adding water.
