📝 General Description

Molokhia, also known as Jew’s Mallow or Jute Mallow, is a leafy green plant native to the Middle East and Africa. The dried form is made by harvesting young leaves, then washing, drying, and finely chopping them to preserve their nutritional value and flavor. Known for its mucilaginous texture when cooked, dried molokhia is a staple in many traditional dishes across Egypt and the Arab world.
