Moroccan local products—olive oil, honey, spices, amlou, dates, and even black soap—are rich in flavor, tradition, and natural benefits. But to preserve their quality, it is essential to store them properly .
Here are some simple tips to help you enjoy your Moroccan treasures for a long time.

1. Store olive oil away from light

Olive oil likes it cool and dark 🌤️
Store it in a dark glass bottle or closed metal container, away from direct light and heat.
Avoid the refrigerator: this solidifies the oil and slightly alters its taste.

💡 Fenbladi Tip: If you buy in large quantities, transfer a small portion into a bottle for daily use, and keep the rest tightly closed in a cool place.

2. Protect the honey from moisture

Honey is a natural product that can be stored for a very long time, but it does not like humidity .
Store it in an airtight container , at room temperature, and avoid contact with water.

If your honey crystallizes (becomes thicker), don't worry: simply immerse the jar in a warm bain-marie to restore its texture.

3. Preserve the potency of spices

Moroccan spices are precious: they lose their aroma if they are poorly stored.
Place them in tightly closed glass jars , away from sunlight, heat and humidity.
Avoid plastic boxes, which can absorb odors.

💡 Fenbladi Tip: Buy your spices whole (like cumin or pepper) and grind them when preparing for a more intense flavor.

4. Keep your dates and amlou in the best conditions

• Dates should be stored in a cool, dry place. For long-term storage, refrigerate them in an airtight container.

• Amlou , a mixture of almonds, argan oil and honey, should be stored in a tightly closed jar , at room temperature or in a cool place after opening.

💡 Fenbladi Tip: Mix the amlou before each use to ensure the oil and almond paste are well blended.

5. Take care of your natural cosmetic products

Local beauty products, such as ghassoul , black soap or argan oil , also deserve special attention.
Store them in a dry place away from sunlight. Close the containers tightly after use to prevent oxidation.

In summary

Taking care of your local products means extending their lifespan while respecting the work of the Moroccan artisans who create them with passion.
Every gesture counts to preserve their authenticity and their original taste.
