< p > The < a href = "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nabataeans" > Nabataeans< / a > were a tribe who became filthy rich on the trade of frankincense, myrrh, and spices in the Arabian peninsula around 2,000 years ago. They built Petra as the capital of their flourishing civilization. Hauntingly beautiful stone facades standing one hundred meters tall are amazingly intact and well preserved to this day.< / p >

< p > I’ m ashamed to say that it took me almost one month to discover this sweet, cheesy dessert after moving to Jordan. Originally from < a href = "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nablus" > Nablus< / a > , a Palestinian city apparently known for “ high cuisine,” < a href = "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanafeh" > kanafeh< / a > is one of those things that they just can’ t make fast enough. At one famous shop called Habibah in downtown Amman there is always a line, and it’ s even a bit stressful ordering there unless you know what you’ re doing!< / p >
