If you really want to experience Mansaf authentically, then put away your knife and spoon and roll up your sleeves. Jordan Mansaf is traditionally eaten with your right hand while the left hand is behind your back. This is so you don't get confused as to what hand you are suppose to be using. There is actually an art to tearing off a piece of meat, rolling it in the Jameed sauce and rice and creating a ball. Carefully drop it into your mouth without your hands or fingers touching your mouth. It is perfectly acceptable to use a spoon, but give it a go the Jordanian way and see how you do!
