Jameed Making

Al Karak

Share

Karak - the Kingdom of Jameed. Known for its Mansaf.

Before the lifechanging Mansaf meal at Beit Al Jameed, there is a journey that consists of three stops.

  1. Contrasting Jordanian Jameed varieties.
  2. Sampling Jameed and tasting herbs used for the production process.
  3. A brief demonstration of the production, from the goat milking, boiling and soaring the milk, to the shaping of the Jameed into a rock. Finally, the last piece of the experience puzzle is the making of Mansaf using the Jameed.

This authentic experience is hosted by Beit Al Jameed - that accommodates a total of 11 visitors in the three rooms of the house.
