You can store this halva for up to 1 month in an airtight container in the fridge.
You can use any type of syrup such as mulberry syrup, fig syrup, or date syrup to make this halva.
Grape syrup, or "Doshab," is a sweet and thick substance usually made from sweet grapes. It has a warm nature and is highly recommended for consumption in autumn and winter. It is rich in vitamins C, B, A, and minerals like calcium, potassium, iron, and magnesium. Grape syrup is also very beneficial for boosting the immune system.
High-quality grape syrup should have a sweet taste of grapes, and any unnatural sweetness indicates low quality. Traditional grape syrups are usually darker in color because they are made with direct heat.
As we know, rose water is the aromatic extract of the rose flower, and the best quality is made in Kashan and Meymand, Fars. Many store-bought rose waters are not pure and do not have the original rose scent. Pure rose water smells like the rose flower and should not have a sour or fermented odor. It should be clear, light, and without sediment, and it has a slightly bitter taste. When buying rose water, be sure to check for these qualities.
