Everyone loves a good cookie that you can dunk into milk or coffee that has that tender, crumbly, melt in your mouth texture. In this video I share some secret ingredients for this popular middle eastern cookie, rich with the flavors of sesame and ground anise seed. As a kid my grandparents would give me these cookies if I had a tummy ache, and I would feel so much better. :) Anise works as an anti-inflammatory agent, used throughout millennia by eastern cultures as an herb to treat stomach pain, nausea, and even insomnia!
