The '''Berber cuisine''' ({{Lang-ar|المطبخ البربري}}), though lacking a singular and standardized culinary framework,<ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last=Albala |first=Ken |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=NTo6c_PJWRgC&pg=PA234 |title=Food Cultures of the World Encyclopedia |date=2011 |publisher=ABC-CLIO |isbn=978-0-313-37626-9 |pages=234 |language=en}}</ref> encompasses a diverse range of traditional dishes and influenced by the numerous flavours from distinct regions across North Africa.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nationalgeographic.com/pages/article/gordon-ramsay-morocco-cooking|title=Gordon Ramsay Treks the Mountains of Morocco|publisher=National Geographic|first1=Jill|last1=Robinson|date=12 June 2019}}</ref> There is no consistent Berber cuisine, and it has been exposed to various influences. [[Berbers]]' meal choices were shaped by local availability of foods and personal finances.<ref name=":0" /> Berbers follow the same dietary laws and hygiene requirements as other [[Muslims]]. [[Ken Albala]] noted that "Describing meals as typically Berber is impossible–at best, they are samples of what is eaten in different regions by Berber families".<ref name=":0" />
[[Berber people|Berber]] cuisine differs from one area to another within [[North Africa]] and [[West Africa]] ([[Mauritania]]). For this reason, every dish has a distinct and unique identity and taste according to the specific region it originates from in North Africa, with some dishes estimated to be more than a thousand years old. Zayanes of the region of [[Khénifra]] around the [[Middle Atlas]] have a cuisine of a remarkable simplicity. It is based primarily on corn, barley, ewe's milk, goat cheese, butter, honey, meat, and game.<ref>{{Cite
