[Sca-cooks] Al-Andalus griddle tool?

[Ana Valdés]

I was in Gaza some years ago and was invited with homemade knafe and has
loved it since then. I travelled later to Nablus, where the knafe was
originated, recording the Palestinian's own tales. It was wonderful,
glorious swwet and siropy, in every corner it was a baker making it in big
pans.
Tried to do at home but never succeeded. The secret, say my Palestinian
friends, is the cheese. The local neutral flavored Palestinian fresh cheese.
The muzzarella don't have the flavour, it's only a poor substitute.
