Muslims in North America have a historic opportunity. The opportunity is to have their culture recognized and their dietary needs acknowledged. Kraft Foods, the largest food company in North America, is reaching out to Muslims by creating recipes that can be used daily or for various Islamic celebrations.

In developing these recipes, Kraft's culinary professionals worked closely with Muslims to better understand Muslim culture and religion, how these two elements relate to food and where Kraft products could become part of a daily Halal diet. Kraft has ensured that the ingredients in the Kraft products included in these recipes meet Islamic dietary laws.

ACTION REQUESTED:

Please take a moment and provide feedback on the recipes and Kraft's efforts to develop recipes that are relevant to Muslims.

Your feedback is important and will help ensure future development of products and ideas for the Muslim market!

Recipes are based on ingredients available in North America.

Make-Ahead Spinach Phyllo Roll-UpsDelicious and easy-to-prepare feta cheese appetizers.

Prep: 30 min. | Total: 55 min.

Place one of the phyllo sheets on a clean work surface; brush lightly with butter. Top with two more phyllo sheets, brushing more of the remaining butter between each layer. Place remaining phyllo between sheets of plastic wrap. Set aside.

Spread 1/5 of the spinach mixture along one of the short sides of the phyllo stack; fold in both long sides, then roll up to make a log.

CHERI BROWN FROM USA said:

I enjoy some of Kraft products. I think it would be great that Kraft join into our halal way of life. As a mother I have to change my recipes constantly and I used to subscripe to the Kraft recipes magazine but they have pork products as well and that and I had to turn to my Ummah to stick with my requirements to Islam.
I think it would benefit the Kraft Corporation and the Muslims as a whole for the American Muslims who have less websites and reference for our food ideas and recipes.
I thank Allah
IslamCity for assisting Kraft foods to assist the Muslim Ummah!
Shukrun Allah!

Thanks for the deliciously halal recipes for muslims like us to try.However,it would be even better if you can give us the cake and pastries recipes which can be halal to eat too.This is because I noticed most of these recipes uses alchoholic drinks and gelatin for longer preservation and taste.If you can provide us with the substitution products to get the same taste and preservation like them will be much appreciated.Thank you again.

Hello,
I am a muslim american. I do subscribe to kraft foods magazine, and receive your newsletter. I love these publications, they make life easier! But most of the times I have to manipulate or skip recipes, because they are not according to our dietary restrictions, 'halal'. I was positively surprised to find these halal recipes on islamicity.com. I hope you continue to come up with similar recipes. I am a great believer in finding shortcuts when preparing meals, and Kraft has given me many great ideas. Thanks,

AMY HOSSAIN FROM USA said:

Bismillahir rahmanir rahim.
I feel honored that Kraft would spend their time and money to try and figure out what Muslims might eat.

I feel these recipes cater to the young American born Muslim population in perhaps in their college years or early year of marriage. They might be more familiar with the ingredients used such as refrigerated crescent rolls and the idea of a sweet spread or dip for finger foods.

There are traditional recipes for Ramadan that vary from country to country, as well as variations in families within those countries. Perhaps Kraft has already done this, but I think it might be beneficial to find HEALTHY ways (no hydrogenated oils, fructose, corn syrup, etc) to package these dishes that are already being homemade. Perhaps offering them in freezer packaging so that it is easy to serve when you have parties. And parties happen quite often during Ramadan and other holidays. It is in these times that prepackaged food makes it easier on the cook in the family.

To be completely honest I wouldn't personally use any of the recipes listed. But I was still pleased to see the innovative recipes with nods to traditional ingredients. I feel that this is a good start. Or perhaps its just that I'm not in the target market that Kraft is aiming for. I prefer to cook food made from scratch without chemicals and added "flavors", etc. But I wish Kraft the best of luck with their endeavor. May Allah bless them for their efforts.

The fig crescents look wonderful and I really would like to try them out at my next Eid party! In general, I like my entrees to have a little bit of kick in them (in terms of spice) so I would recommend addendums to the recipes to make them spicy without losing the flavor of the dish. The fatoush looks really great too, so I might try that as well. Thanks for doing this, and good luck!

AFEEFA FROM USA said:

I really like the idea to put figs into these rolls. Great recipe. However, I don't necessarily believe that putting the mix into crescent rolls is a good idea. Given that some believe (the legend, or fact) that bakers came up with crescent-shaped rolls (or croissants) to commemorate victory over the Muslim rulers of Turkey at one point in time, some Muslims might find it highly inappropriate to "eat a crescent."

Other shapes (e.g. straight rolls) might be equally tasty and more politically sensitive alternatives.

I will make sure to spread the good news and let my family and friends know about Kraft Halal Recipes. I cannot wait to taste those dishes, it looks delicious.

Thank You!

RASHEEDAH RABB FROM USA said:

It is a blessing that Kraft has decided to enter into the very lucretive market "Halal". One must also take into consideration the Corn Syrup, Hydrogenated and Partially Hydrogenated Oils (Transfat) and if the flours are Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO). Additives and preservatives are ingredients contained in the refrigerated rolls. We must be very careful if we desire to use recipes. Try to find healthy substitutes for questionable ingredients.

It was learnt that Kraft uses Pig related products in it process of manufacturing such edibles. Before launching hala recipe, it would do immense good if Kraft could verify, reject or conform to such allegations. Trust me, it has been long , almost twenty years since I last tasted the best cheese available in the market. And not only that, I make sure I don't buy, supply or permit anyone to eat it in my knowledge.

SHARIFUL FROM BANGLADESH said:

NOOR LATIFF FROM USA said:

These are great recipes. Our family looks forward to more of this great recipes. We also would encourage Kraft to use the same idea towards making and marketing their cheese and other dairy and non-dairy products so Muslims in USA can enjoy them without any doubts.

FARHEEN FROM USA (PARENTS FROM PAKISTAN AND INDIA) said:

Great job!
Finally, someone catering to the unaddressed needs of a sizeable community here in the US... thanks for the effort, and all the recipes look good so far...

Also, it would be great to see a line of Halal products in mainstream grocery stores, or certain Kraft products marked as being "Halal" (just like the Kosher mark), easily available.

2006-10-29

RAFIA AKHTAR FROM CANADA said:

I think the idea of having such recipes that cater to halal foods from Kraft is absolutely wonderful.

SAMINA FROM USA said:

Are all kraft grated cheeses without any animal ingredients i.e any meat derived ingredients? There is no UD mark on these packs. These symbols are invaluable when we shop as they tell us that there are no meat derived animal products and only dairy present. What I specifically want to know is the source of the enzymes in these cheeses. Thank you for your effort in helping make our shopping easy for us.

BORHAN UDDIN FROM USA said:

I really aprecciate the effort and time put into such a project, its a great job you're doing. I would just like to say that if Kraft could also do such work in bringing basic products (such as cheese, etc.) with Halal certifications, that would be even better. Also, almost every Muslim I know would buy such products. Thank you.

SHAZA KHAN FROM USA said:

This recipe looks delicious! I can't wait to try it for myself. As a whole, all of the "halal" recipes posted by Kraft are a great effort on the company's behalf to reach out to its Muslim consumers. We appreciate the recognition and acknowledgement of our unique tastes, foods, and customs and are happy to have Kraft embrace them!

2006-10-28

DON KHAN FROM USA said:

I have avoided Kraft products because I read that the rennet used in cheeses is not from halal sources. I see some of these recipies use Kraft cheese. Did anyone verify that the Parmesian, cheddaer, and cream cheese are halal?

2006-10-28

Thank you so much for reaching out to the Muslim community and preparing these recipes. I will definitely keep this action in mind next time I head to the grocery store! Please provide us with more drink recipes. It is so refreshing to get recipes for non-alcoholic beverages.
Maybe you could also think of a symbol (similar to the jewis (k) )that you could apply on your products to certify they do not contain pork, animal gelatin....
Thank you.

THAMREEN SIDDIQUI FROM USA said:

Hello,

First of all I would like to thank you for making efforts to comply with our beliefs as well.

Second, it would be AWESOME if you guys started making this Zabiha Halal -- which means ingredients are pork free and meats are islamically slaughtered.

Thanks so much for your efforts - hope to see a change soon.

ARUSA MANNAN FROM CANADA said:

Thank you, Kraft! How amazing it is to be recognized as part of the North Amarican mosaic. I am thrilled with this effort and will look forward to even more food ideas every Ramadan and Eid. It is important not to lose too many nutrients with eating and drinking restrictions during this month. I often see people breaking their fasts with heavy, rich foods that lead to a sudden sense of lethargy and fatigue. Since people also desire to spend long hours of the night in prayers it would be more beneficial to eat light, healthy meals that will provide energy and rejuvenate the body. I've always loved trying all your recipes because of their ease and wholesomeness. Now these recipes will also be culturally relevant! With Kraft's help I look forward to many healthy Ramadans.
Sincerely,
Arusa

This is wonderful, such a large company promoting halal recipes!!!
Just waiting for HALAL marshamallow cereal.

2006-10-26

MAGDA FROM USA said:

Wonderful Idea - it would be great to see halal meat available in some of the larger chain stores, and eventually a section in the grocery stores dedicated to halal products, just as there are currently for kosher and vegetarian, but this is a great first start. There would most certainly be a huge market for cost-effective halal foods.

2006-10-26

A KHAN FROM US said:

Finally someone realized there is a huge potential for bussiness among muslim consumers. As Kosher market has been for years it is time for Halal and Zabeebah markets. Even meat items made from Zabeehah meats from muslim farms with animals slaughtered according to islamic way will create huge profits and bussiness for Kraft or other companies who wish to tap this area.

SAFA SOLIMAN FROM USA said:

I think it will be mutually beneficial for the vendor and the consumer.
I am personally a very busy person and having this variety of food would definately encourage me to buy.
I presently pay someone to parepare this kind of food for me. it is very costly and I have to drive for one hour and get my food every two weeks. having it available and fresh would be a great idea
i hope you really go through wiit it

thank you for the thought

ARIF M. SHAOIB, MD FROM USA said:

I am happy to read this news. It is about time that these big companies realize that Muslims are a big part of the US culture. I hope we see a similar trend from card makers as you never find a card for Eid or other Islamic holidays but you see plenty for Jewish and Christian holidays.

2006-10-25

FARAH FROM CANADA said:

Asalaamualikum,
I think it is a great idea that Kraft has initiated a section for Islamic/Halal Recipes. The part that made me feel good was when I read the descriptions of the recipes. Brings us muslims one step closer to building an understanding with the non-muslims and helping them recognize our culture and religion.

2006-10-25

MINA FROM USA said:

I am very pleased kraft is makeing halal things for muslims I know alot of people who would love to buy kraft products especially cheese products but often it is not halal I am sure if they made thier cheese halal they would get alot of business and some kind of symbol would be nice like an "H" for halal or something.

DIANA (KAUSAR) MIAN FROM USA said:

Some of the receipes look very tempting.
Is Kraft going to put "h" on their products so we know that they are Halal? I already subscribe to the Kraft magazine they send, it is very good.
If they could provide some receipes for "fun" foods for children that of course are halal.
It is so uplifting to have such a large and well know name as Kraft to take an interest in us.

sincerely,

2006-10-24

LYN FROM USA said:

Though I am not a Muslim, i am *very* glad to see that there are compainies who are willing to address the need for more common recipes for those faiths other than those that are Judeo-Christian.

I am a student of Islam, and am encouraged in life when I read the Koran and the Holy words. Is is striking when when reads the Holy Books of other faiths ... one learns the culture and the mores.

Again, thank you. I will be using these recipes myself ... if they taste as good as they look and sound, I am sure I will be pleased!

2006-10-23

Thank you for developing and posting these recipes. I haven't tried them yet, but certainly appreciate the gesture. They look simple enough and tasty. It is nice of Kraft to promote Halal foods/recipes. This is what the majority of Muslims are doing; trying to provide nourishment for family and friends, so it is nice to have that recognized.

2006-10-23

SYED FROM INDIA said:

I just want to thank Kraft Foods for their kind gesture to recognize the Muslim culture and the Muslim eating habits where Halal food is the norm.
May Allah bless your company.
Greatly appreciate it. This start would also encourage Non-Muslims to acquire these hygienic eating habits.

MUHAMMAD TARIQ MUGHAL FROM USA said:

I recently visited Islamicity.com and found out about these receipes from Kraft related to Ramadhan and Muslims. I think it an historic event, that such a great corproation as KRAFT has recognized that Muslims are a part of this society and hae special needs when it comes to food. I admire the efforts by the Krafts food engineers and flavor developers to explore the Islamic Food Flavors. Any time any business explores a new avenue, there is a risk or non success, and Kraft has taken that risk. But i think this risk will be worth taking once the word is out there and Muslims know about these efforts by Kraft, they will appreciate it.
Thanks and Good Job.
May Allah bless all those involved in this effort and thinking.
-Tariq-

2006-10-23

ALEX FROM USA said:

These recipes are very nice. I tried the Fattoush it turned out great. I am glad to see Kraft is willing to consider Muslim food needs. Halal Jell-O and Marshmallows would be a big hit with Muslims.

EMILIE FROM USA said:

I appreciate Kraft's interest in catering to the muslim dietary restrictions. What I really would like to Kraft bring to the market are halal Kraft Cheese, halal Mac & Cheese, and Halal Marshmallows. The principal restriction being: Pork based gelatine and pork based enzymes.
Thank you.

2006-10-23

MARYAH FROM USA said:

Nice and simple, takes the work out of researching ingredients and trying to decide what is halal.

ROXANNE NOORZADY FROM U.S.A. said:

I think these recipies are a SUPERB idea! I thank Kraft for acknowledging Muslims, our culture, and dietery laws. It's rare to find companies in America who want to reach out to Muslims by creating products in order to target them. It seems that we can often find Jewish/kosher products all year round in American grocery stores, and more so during Jewish holidays. It's wonderful for Muslims to have the same available to them. Thanks again, Kraft!

2006-10-22

TALHA KHALID FROM CANADA said:

What an excellent idea! Finally, a major food manufacturer has taken the lead step in catering to the Halal market. The recipes here are excellent, and the fact that all the ingredients are assured to be Halal takes a tremendous burden off the Muslim mind.

2006-10-22

CARRIE DOULFIKHAR FROM USA said:

Finally! The acknowledgement of muslims and recipes for our holidays! If more companies would join the bandwagon, AMIN!!! Now, if they would only use halal gelatin and broth in their other products, I know my life would be easier ! Thanks for the efforts!

Im delighted to hear about such great achievements in products catered for the Muslim cominuty. Kaft food is always grat and Mulims Kraft good are going to be on my shopping list once they are out.

2006-10-22

IMAN S FROM US said:

This is great!

It's wonderful to see a large corporation taking an active interest in the long ignored Islamic market.

FAR FROM U.S.A said:

Meatballs, phyllo rolls, chopped salad and crescent rolls sound really good. I would suggest that build a line of everyday used food with halal meats and cheese i.e. meatballs, chicken parm, mac & cheese, meatloaf, halal beef and chicken entrees. the good thing would be that whatever you make halal would also be kosher. So associating quality of product with halal and kosher name will kick off the product to a wider demogrphics than just muslims & jews. It is nice to know that finally a mainstream food company has tried to reach out the community. Thank You.

2006-10-22

TASNEEM ALI FROM USA said:

I will try these recipies not only because they look good but Kraft company acknowledges our customs and no other company has taken this initiative and if more companies give us some respect after being looked down as terrorist etc and we forgot that companies even care how we feel and I will definately but more products made by Kraft and I urge all Muslims to encourage companies who cares abt our customs. Thankyou

RIZWANA CHOUDHURY FROM USA said:

I think it's great that Kraft is taking the initiative to reach out to consumers of Muslim faith. It would be great if they could extend this idea to desserts too - especially Marshmallows. Halal marshmallows are hard to find and they'd fly off the shelves in the supermarket if they were available!

2006-10-22

YUSUF FROM USA said:

As Salaam-alaikum and Ramadan Mubarak.

Don't see a problem with Kraft's attempt at this gesture. As long as the ingredients are halal, then OK. With a company this large and with such wide distribution channels..it will also encourage other mainstream food producers to follow suit.
Lastly though, we should support our own Muslim food producers first! Allah (swt) gave Halal to us believers as a dawah tool so support those close to "home".

ALYSSA TAIFI FROM USA said:

Thank you so much for these great recipes! It is so great to have one of the big food companies thinking about diversifying their foods for different cultures. As a Muslim American, it is very difficult to find Muslim friendly foods. Thank you for making this a little bit easier.

KEITH D. LIVINGSTON FROM UNITE STATES OF AMERICA said:

I found the recipes outstanding and would recommend that Kraft put together a cookbook honoring the two Eids, and sold at the grocery counters in markets with large Muslim communities, similar to those found for the 4th of July, summer bbqs, Chanakuh, etc.

Also, if it is possible for Kraft to work closely with the Muslim Community to establish a means of providing halal labeling on foods, this would be great.

2006-10-21

2006-10-21

FAHRI ALP KILIC FROM CANADA said:

I really enjoyed the meatball recipe. It was quite easy to make, and tasty. I found that a little cumin added to recipe added a nice additional flavour. I also tried the "Jazz it up" option, adding cheese to the center of the meatballs. I found that the size of the meatballs was a little small to do this option without having a lot of the cheese leak out, so I would suggest making fewer meatballs (say, 6 or 8 instead of 12) when stuffing them.

2006-10-21

MRS.ALVA M. NABILA FROM UNITED STATES said:

It is indeed good of carft to take the time to give to us Muslims some recipes for Ramadan& Eid, i encrouge my other Muslim brothers and sisters to copy them too for there are not many other manufactors that have done what Kraft has done.

2006-10-21

MK FROM USA said:

Hi, this recipe sounds really good, but i was wondering if Kraft does not carry Feta cheese or if the feta cheese they do have is not halal?

2006-10-21

AMIN FROM CANADA said:

Overall these are good recepies. They are definetly a great addition to the diet of our family. For many years we used to eat always the same thing over and over again. Muslims need to discover new tastes and meals, to develop new culinary habits. We are tired to eat the exact same food we've been for decades ! I welcome the idea of Kraft and encourage them to develop and promote new products that will open the diet of mulims to new horizons and at the same time kepping it Halal. Despite the recepies posted on islamcity taste really good, we would like to see other ones as prinpical meals and with meat. Also we need to have "ready in 5 min" food, halal pizza (with halal peperony) etc... I think that one of the most fundamental things to appeal muslims for buying your products is to have a visible sign on the product's box, specifing that it is halal or that muslims can eat it ! I am looking forward, with the increasing muslim population, for the developement of the halal food market, not only in small arabic shops, but also as bulk products available in every grocery.

Hope my comments were usefull !

H ZIA FROM USA said:

I think Kraft food has done an excellent job! There are very few places that take muslims and halal food into consideration. If a big company like kraft starts to include muslims into its chain of customers, hopefully smaller companies will start doing so in order to keep up with competition. Its a win-win situation for both the company and for muslims. I'm surprised this didnt happen years ago, since there are so many (masha'allah) muslims living in the U.S. It's nice to see people giving muslims a second look and considering what they eat and soforth.

HAKIM ABDULLAH FROM USA said:

As-Salaam-Alaikum

Whlie I have health concerns this a very postive step your company has taken. You should contact muslims who are versed in Islamic dietary law. However muslim can have most are nearly all kosher food the laws are very similar. Myself personally I don't use dairy, meat, flour and sugar products. I use substitute products mostly organic for them in all my recipes.

Thank you for creating recipes for Muslims. I am a subscriber to
your Kraft Food & Family magazine and was looking at an old
issue to make Ramadan and Eid dishes to serve to friends. I will
try the Fatoush and Spinach Roll up recipes for iftari. I was
planning on making Spanakopita but will try the roll-up method.

I was disappointed there wern't any main courses! Focus your
effort there next! And don't forget the spices! We love our food
with spices! Chili, Cardamom, Fennel, Cinnamon Bark,
Cloves ...etc.

Thank you.

IBRAHIM FROM USA said:

As salam alaikum,

I think it's a great gesture by Kraft to recognize Islam and to incorporate islamic diet to mainstream America. Perhaps through these ways, people will learn to see Islam for the divine way of life that it is and not the falsehood in the misconceptions of Islam.

Way to go Kraft and Islamica Magazine.

MUHAMMAD FROM USA said:

I have a question regarding the Cheese from Kraft.
Usually when I buy stuff I check if it is marked "U" or "K". I do not think that most of the Kraft products are marked either of both, so I am not really sure wheather these product are halal or not? Any comments?

2006-10-21

AMRO ELAKKAD FROM USA said:

I am so glad that Kraft will be developing that adhere to the Islamic dietary and religous laws (halal food) .. this is a great step that is over due. I am buying all those kraft products once they are available.

MUHAMMAD WASIULLAH FROM USA said:

I appreciate this effort by KRAFT,this should not be limited only to the month of Ramadan,as

SANDY UMM SABR FROM USA said:

Alhamdulillah. I think this is great. There are so many Muslims in the US today, and we do have to eat every day. I think that Kraft will do very well with this, and insha'Allah more companies will follow suit.

I know there are efforts to have Halal symbols approved for food labels, insha'Allah they will become as popular as the Kosher symbols. It would sure make my life easier at the grocery store, insha'Allah.

I have already forwarded this website to many sisters, so insha'Allah the word will get out and Kraft will see an increase in support because of this.

2006-10-21

TEGAN ABDIKARIM FROM USA said:

Some of the items you posted were not halal. The ingredients that we cannot eat are whey, mono and diglycerides, rennet, animal enzymes, gelatin, some cholesterol, vanilla extract (anything with alchohol), glycerol (glycerine), hormones, lard, magnesium stearate (stearic acid), pepsin, shortening from animals, and of course pork.

I grew up eating your food and enjoyed it, since I have been Muslim I have found that I cannot eat almost anything Kraft produces. If there was halal kraft food I would definately buy it. Especially the macaroni and cheese and the cheese.

Thank you for considering the Muslim community!

I always enjoy Kraft recipies and regularly recieve emails.Many of the kraft recipies call for products which are not permissable for muslims to eat(ie not halal),so i use to substitute them with other ingredients.
So,thank you for the effort to plan delicious recipies.We will be waiting for more such recipies.

TABASSUM FROM USA said:

I would love if Kraft made all its products halal so we can consume and enjoy it. especially, single cheese slice. I have not prepared any of the recipes for wondering, if the kraft ingredients are halal. But it will be a huge favor for muslims as well as more consumer demand for Kraft products if it gets a halal certificate.

Thank you,
