When I started dating my husband, I became enamored with Persian culture. I loved all the Middle Eastern flavors, the smell, the music, the color. I really wanted to learn to cook Persian food to make him happy (fine, to make ME happy!!) Fortunately, my gracious mother-in-law welcomed me into her kitchen and taught me almost everything . . . and you are in for the most amazing culinary experience of your life!
The following recipes are all excerpts from Reyna’s new cookbook, Persian Food from the Non-Persian Bride: And Other Kosher Sephardic Recipes You Will Love.
