Lebanese Kishk Balls

Kiskh is a dried fermented dairy product; different versions and variations are made under various names in North Africa, the Levant, Turkey, the Caucasus, Iran, Central Asia, and Mongolia. Traces of kishk have been found in ancient jars, and it may be an ancestor of cheese. In Lebanon, kishk is a powdered mixture made with goat, sheep, or cow milk or yogurt (goat is the most common), and burghul (parboiled cracked wheat).
