Significance of Zarb

Zarb is more than just a meal; it represents the Bedouin values of hospitality, community, and resourcefulness. The preparation of Zarb is a social event, often shared with family and guests, symbolizing the Bedouin tradition of gathering together to enjoy good food and company.

The slow cooking process also reflects the Bedouin way of life—patient, deliberate, and deeply connected to the rhythms of the desert.

A deep pit is prepared in the sand, creating a natural underground oven.
