Summary

Local chef Mohammad Naccache, better known by his professional alias Chef Mood, has been throwing seasonal, local ingredients into his bread recipes, which he's spilled to The Daily Star along with some other healthy springtime fare.

With a knack for combining trendy superfoods with traditional Lebanese flavors, Chef Mood's brunchy spring menu features in-season local flavors such as bread stuffed with strawberries and halloumi cheese.

Chef Mood's favorite recipe is a savory loaf made with kishik, a powder blend of fermented bulgur and dried yogurt.
