You will feel that you are entering the place that you did not go to a sweets factory or the office of the grandson of the founder of Bahraini candy in the Kingdom of Bahrain and the original mother factory, but you will feel that you are wandering in a historical heritage museum of 175 years old, accompanied by a varied Gulf women delegation from the Kingdom of Bahrain and the Sultanate of Oman and Qatar. Shurait.
We initially expected that we will see candy boxes and how to make candy, but we found ourselves reading a very interesting and documented historical story on the walls of Hussein Shouter stores, starting from the pots in which the candy was made to the “Al -Tajuri”, that is, the safe financial treasury and many ancient heritage holdings since the period of 1850, where the Bahraini candy story began by chance, as the director of public relations, Muhammad Al -Khunaizi, is known to us. The ancient Chouter was “Nawakhza” a sea and a ship owners until one of the timber trade trips, specifically during the journey of Hussein Muhammad Shurayat, the middle grandson of the great grandfather Hussein Shurayat, and during his visit to Iraq, he got acquainted with an Iraqi merchant, and he had a dessert factory, and he remained for a period of three to four months learning himself “workmanship” and with the help of a number of his companions, then he returned to the Kingdom of Bahrain, and he took a number Sweets, but with an addition to his touches on adding cardamom and saffron as he replaced the Iraqi ghee with oil, and he started his first steps in the vicinity of the freezing and those close to it and coincidentally that he was cooking his sweets, and accompanied it with him during the diving season and pearl hunt Its storage period does not exceed six months and the best is to use it within two months, so that its flavor does not change; Thus, the grandson Hussein continued to cook candy in his home, and he traded it at the level of Al -Freij until he inherited it from his son Muhammad Hussein.
As if the grandson, Hussein Shouter, was reading the near future and had a long -term look. Because there is a cheaper alternative, so the entire work of this ancient family from trafficking with pearls to the candy industry in the Kingdom of Bahrain was transformed, and that was in the 1950s, and the issue began to develop and the holy that was used to make Bahraini desserts in its beginnings is present in the Bahrain National Museum of Bahraini Crafts in 1850 and there are in Hussein Shurayat stores dating back to 1856.
When you coincide with being invited to represent the Kingdom of Bahrain abroad, you are certainly when you think about gifting external delegations, you will accompany you with a candy and Matti Bahrain, entitled “The Bahrain Field”, which is a name that deliberately placed it on the bags of the sweets factory Hussein Muhammad Shouter, where Fouad Shuwaitir confirms that despite the great offers that came to him in order to open branches for his factory in a number of Gulf countries, he refused; Because he is interested and adheres to the idea that everyone who visits the Kingdom of Bahrain, or wants to dedicate a person from outside Bahrain a special gift that reflects the history and culture of the Kingdom of Bahrain, is interested in taking the “Bahrain formula” from his grandfather’s great factory, from important information about the factory history that he is registered as a Bahraini brand in the official records of the Ministry of Trade since 1850 years.
During the filling of candy from the factory, anyone can ensure that it remains hot inside the box for five hours, especially for the Gulf brothers who visit Bahrain where they can deliver sweets to their people in the areas near the Kingdom of Bahrain, which is “brushes” and hot and the dessert cooking period takes sixty minutes, and the red dessert is the original Bahraini dessert, then it developed and there are multiple types such as ownership and figs, and the factory developed from the branch One in the Muharraq Market to seven main branches, in addition to six sale points in the Kingdom of Bahrain and Bahrain International Airport.
The factory in which when you wander around you feel as if you wandered inside an ancient historical museum that opens its doors daily for visitors and families from eight o’clock to ten in the morning except for Friday and Saturday, it is a historical success story for a craft that started from inside the house, and at the level of Al -Farj to reach the world and turn to one of the most important symbols of the authentic Bahraini culture and formula.
