The Berber cuisine (Arabic: المطبخ البربري), though lacking a singular and standardized culinary framework,[1] encompasses a diverse range of traditional dishes and influenced by the numerous flavours from distinct regions across North Africa.
Berbers' meal choices were shaped by local availability of foods and personal finances.
[1] Berbers follow the same dietary laws and hygiene requirements as other Muslims.
Zayanes of the region of Khénifra around the Middle Atlas have a cuisine of a remarkable simplicity.
It is based primarily on corn, barley, ewe's milk, goat cheese, butter, honey, meat, and game.
