I've been living in egypt for a few years now, and I absolutely love it.
Although one of the problems i'm always encountering, is how to find a lot of the ingredients needed in cooking. Like vanilla essence, I know that it's not sold here due to the alcohol content, but it just doesn't taste the same using the vanilla powder.
I also have a lot of difficulties in finding specific items in sweet recipes (which actually surprises me considering how many sweets are consumed here!)
Does any one have any tips on where i can find some good baking ingredients/equipment? Other than waiting to go back home and bringing it back with me!!!
