التيشطار

Tichtar (التيشطار) — traditional Mauritanian dried beef, prepared using time-honored salting and air-drying methods that intensify the natural flavor while preserving the meat.

Hand-cut into strips and seasoned the traditional way, Tichtar is rich in protein, deeply savory, and shelf-stable. A pantry staple in Mauritanian households for generations — eaten on its own as a high-protein snack, rehydrated for stews, or added to couscous and rice dishes.

How to use:

• As a snack: eat as-is, like jerky
• In cooking: rehydrate in warm broth for 15–20 minutes, then add to couscous, Bassi, or rice
• Pair with: traditional gunpowder green tea, fresh bread, or dates
