Samanu is a traditional, sweet cream made from sprouted wheat and water, with no added sugars, colorings, or preservatives. The prolonged cooking process creates a natural caramel flavor and a rich, smooth texture.
This 100% plant-based delicacy is mainly eaten during Nowruz, the Persian New Year, and symbolizes strength, fertility and abundance.
Enjoy Samanu for breakfast, as a healthy sweet snack, or as part of a festive dessert buffet. Also delicious with nuts, dates, or bread.
