The origin of Yemeni cuisine goes back to the ancient civilizations of
Awsan, Hadramout, Ma'in and Qataban and the two important powers in the ancient world: Saba and Himyar. Controlling frankincense, myrrh, and the spices brought from India and beyond and selling them to the kingdoms of the north, these south Arabian countries prospered. Through the centuries, a number of the priceless condiments in which these South Arabians traded, entered their cuisines, including this tasty relish, which is used to flavor many types of foods.
