Booza

Booza is an Eastern Levant frozen dairy dessert made with milk, cream, sugar, mastic and sahlab (orchid flour), giving it its distinguished stretchy and chewy texture—much like dondurma. It is an Arabic dessert similar to ice cream. Booza is traditionally made through a process of pounding and stretching in a freezer drum, instead of the more usual churning method used in other ice creams, leading to a creamy yet dense texture. Booza origins dates back to at least 1500 AD in the region of Syria and is sometimes referred to as the "first ice cream in the world".
