“Maftool” is one of the popular dishes in Palestine and other Arab countries. Um Ishmael and other women from the village of Deir Ballut in the Salfit, central Palestine managed to empower themselves economically and save their families financially through hard and humble work in making handmade Maftool, away from using modern machines.
