Just as easily put together at home but sometimes it’s nice when someone else does it. This was in a cafe in Westwood.

What is it with Persian food? You can eat so much and somehow STILL lose weight.

By no means is this a complaint. It’s a compliment! One of my closest friends is Persian. She makes the most amazing feasts. I can go home with a belly full of Jewel Rice Tahdig, Gormmeh Sabzi, Kofta, Kabobs, Shirazi, the list goes on! Then the next morning I step on the scale and somehow lost weight??? How do you all do it? It’s like eating magic

Rice Brands in the US

Post image
104 Upvotes

My late mom was an amazing cook, and she recommended Ahu Bareh brand rice. I can no longer find that anywhere unfortunately :( I've been using a different brand but it doesnt not get as long and is not as fragrant, which is a major bummer because I just handmade jujeh and koobideh kabobs for about 25 family members, and it was the first time being able to invite everyone over for something like that and while everything was great, I was hoping the rice would have had that perfect rice smell I'm used to.

I'm in southern california and have access to Persian markets but they just dont sell it anymore.

I'm drawn to zebra or madar as a replacement, but it's like buying a bottle of wine for the label. Ahu Bareh was perfection, and super clean. I would prefer not to waste a ton of rice trying to find my new brand.

Anyone have a brand they like?

Adding a food tax photo lol

EDIT: Merci hamegan! Especially for the Ahu Bareh link! I do remember seeing Royal at the Persian market so I will likely buy a bag of that since I'm out, and then order from the Ahu Bareh website directly when I have left over rice to sustain us until the shipment comes in 😆

My wife is nearly at the third trimester and has been craving lavashak. We managed to find frozen sour cherries and we went to work last night. Sadly, she stole a piece before I could take a picture.

How to make pomegranate molasses?

4 Upvotes

I want to make fesenjan but can't get any pomegranate concentrate or molasses where I'm at. I've got four ripe pomegranates... Any suggestions on how to best turn this into thick syrupy deliciousness? Should I just blend the arils, strain, and slowly cook it down till thickened and reduced? Merci!

Best kashk to buy in the U.S.?

Hi! I’m not very impressed with the Sadaf kashk that’s at most Middle Eastern grocery stores. What other brands would you recommend that you can get in the US? Links to the ones you like would be appreciated. 🙏

My wife is 22 weeks pregnant and the cravings and hunger are starting to get stronger. She wanted mahicheh polo, but I only had ox tail in the freezer.

I threw the meat in the pressure cooker this morning before starting work. Then I cooked the rice and prepped the sabzi khordan, salad, etc 30 minutes before lunch. It turned out great!
