We’ve got a great addition to your next mezze platter: this chunky, savory garlic matbucha. A matbucha is a popular Middle Eastern dip/sauce with roots in North Africa. This one has bright, bold tomatoes and sweet red peppers with a base of fragrant garlic. A touch of jalapeno yields a mild heat. We love how the texture of the vegetables are still present, so it’s not mealy or watery like some tomato dips can be, and also the matbucha’s sheer versatility. Spread it, dip it or use it as a sauce.
It’s also the bold, chunky base sauce for shakshuka. Though traditionally from the maghreb region, it’s gained popularity in the Middle East and Mediterranean, with many families and restaurants keeping a tub of matbucha stocked in their refrigerators.
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
At its simplest, use this aromatic matbucha as a dip for pita on a mezze platter or slathered across crusty bread as a sandwich condiment or bruschetta base. Salty cheeses like feta pair well with this condiment on a cheese board, and savory grilled meats and roasted veggies will also benefit from the bold, bright flavor. A spoonful goes a long way in amping up a pasta dish. And nothing beats pouring the jar into a pan, cracking eggs on top and making a speedy version of a shakshuka. Scoop and savor with infinite slices of warm challah bread.
