Рецепт в переводе Чарльза Перри из найденного в Дамаске около ста лет назад сборника рецептов XV в., который примечателен тем, что это - единственная известная нам арабская поваренная книга, написанная за полтысячелетия после окончания "Исламского золотого века" - весьма богатого кулинарными источниками - и вплоть до XIX столетия.
Hulwa. Its varieties are very many. Among them are the sweets (halwat) made of natif. You put dibs [fruit syrup], honey, sugar or rubb [thick fruit syrup] in the pot, then you put it on a gentle fire and stir until it takes consistency. Then you beat eggwhite and put it with it and stir until it thickens and become natif. After that, if you want almond candy (halawah lauziyyah) you put in roasted almonds and allaftahu (literally; you feed it), that is, you bind them. Jauziyyah, walnuts; fustuqiyyah, pistachios; bunduqiyyah, hazelnuts; qudamiyya, toasted chickpeas; simsimiyyah, toasted sesame; tahiniyyah, flour [tahin]. You beat in the natif until it thickens. For duhniyyah you put in flour toastet with fat. As for halawah ajamiyyah, toast flour with sesame oil until it becomes slack, and boil dibs or another sweet ingredient and put it on the fire until its scum rises, and skim it. Dissolve cornstarch in water and put it with it.
