Method

  1. Boil dates in lightly salted water stirring frequently until it is a thick paste.
  2. Mix in finely chopped nuts.

Notes

  • A traditional variant is made by straining the pulp out of the paste producing a honey-like date syrup. This procedure uses considerably more dates and can take several days to produce sufficient syrup.
