DedeMed has been Missing In Action!!!

So I know that I’ve been getting emails and messages from a lot of my fans saying “hey Dede, where are you?”  “no new posts”…and I have a good explanation for it I swear…I’m pregnant!!!  Yes yes yes, that’s why I haven’t posted any new video recipes lately, I just don’t like to be filmed with a nice big pregnancy belly…BUT I do have 3 unreleased videos that I will get edited soon and post.  And I have been ill lately with some major headaches and pregnancy pains.  BUT I do have a lot of awesome pictures and recipes to post, and I hope to get back on track this WEEK, so stay tuned and I appreciate all of your support! Let me start off by talking about this amazing Knafe that I had during my trip to Dearborn over the Thanksgiving holiday.  One thing that I can’t find when I’m in Cali is some GOOD Lebanese Knafe, it’s like they kept all the good food in Dearborn!  And yes I can make it myself, but sometimes, especially when I’m pregnant, I just want to pick some up and go home and eat it!!!  So of course I had to have some when I was in Dearborn (and yes I even brought a box back with me, I froze it so that it lasts the long airplane ride home). In my opinion the best knafe in Dearborn is from Liban sweets, they actually specialize in making the knafe, it’s their main dessert that they sell. The packaging for the knafe is also beautiful, it is a box with 2 compartments, one for the tray of knafe and one is for the sesame bread, I am very impressed with their packaging!

  And let me tell you, it was AMAZING!!!!  Nice and crispy, not to sweet, and the sesame bread that they sell with it was on point!  Now I know I don’t have the sesame bread recipe on my site, I still have to figure out how to make it.  But my husband was like “why would anyone eat bread with a dessert”…until he tried it.  So what you do is open up the bread puff, and put a slice of the knafe inside of it, drizzle some of the simple syrup over the knafe and the close it up and eat it like a sweet sandwich.  I actually still have some in my freezer and after writing this post, I think I’m going to take it out so I can have some for dessert tomorrow.
