    Fifty Tetouani ways to serve chicken

    Argan Oil:  The newest oil in the American pantry, one that is intriguing chefs enough that they are developing dishes to showcase it, is argan, from Morocco.

Argan cooperatives run by women in Essaouira that are replanting argan tres and making oil products for export.  Distributor for North America is a former Moroccan journalist, Aziz Alaoui who lives in Montreal.  The oil is expensive (about $40) for a small bottle but the decline in argan trees has made it somewhat scarce.  The money also goes to a good cause.  The cooperatives give women a business and they in turn are saving the argan trees.  

    Preserved lemons are a common, though often unrecognized, flavoring in Moroccan food. They lend an almost indecipherable sweet and sour flavor to couscous, vegetable and meat tagines, and are used in myriad dishes with chicken and seasoned olives.
