that list proves that it is originally Jordanian, describing it a great
achievement.

more than one ritual to promote Mansaf, such as holding Mansaf banquets.”

accompanies food and the method of preparation, noting “It is a cultural
aspect, representing an identity, and expressing Jordan's culture.”
