We like to nickname her the "Sirdele" lady. A sirdele producer for more than 20 years, Abla never thought that one day she would become a dairy producer! Her husband's family had been raising and herding goats for generations and once part of the family, she got down to business and excelled in it.

Sirdele

Sirdele in Shouf, a type of labne produced in clay jars, is the result of the fermentation of goat milk with coarse salt over a period of few months. It is also called Ambarees in the Bekaa Valley.

In 2006, Abla went to Torino to take part in the 2nd Terra Madre event by Slowfood International and was hailed for her traditional labne product.

With Abla, you will learn how Sirdele is produced after coming back from a hike with her husband and his goats!
