Bitter orange jam is a typical Ottoman dish which is widely known in Turkey as “turunç“. It is also known in Palestine but less commonly, where it’s called “mrabba khesh-kash”, “mrabba naranj”, or “zifer” as in Nablus.

I was very lucky to learn this recipe from one of few women who still make it the original way, year after year. All the credit  goes to Mrs. Firyal Alul, thank you so much for keeping our heritage alive and for the love and patience you have shown…
