  • Cooking Class Recipes
    Omid Roustaei | www.thecaspianchef.com | www.instagram.com/thecaspianchef About Persian Cuisine Persian cuisine is one of the world’s great gastronomies, flourishing for centuries across an area that, at the height of the ancient Persian Empire (circa 550 to 330 B.C.), included modern-day Iran, along with parts of Iraq, Macedonia, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Central Asia. The repertoire of dishes is fragrant, diverse, and highly refined, based on complex culinary techniques. They are imbued with fresh flowers and herbs like rose petals, fenugreek, and mint; spices like saffron, sumac, and cardamom; fruits like pomegranate and barberry; all kinds of citrus; and nuts, including pistachios and almonds. If this roster of ingredients sounds familiar, it’s because Persian cooking has influenced Middle Eastern, Moroccan, Northern Indian, and Turkish cuisines yet itself remains somewhat below the radar. Typical Iranian main dishes are combinations of rice with meat (such as lamb, chicken, or fish), vegetables, and nuts. Fresh green herbs are frequently used, along with fruits such as plums, pomegranates, quinces, prunes, apricots, and raisins. Characteristic Iranian flavorings such as saffron, dried limes, cinnamon, turmeric, and fresh herbs are mixed and used in various dishes. The agriculture of Iran produces many fruits and vegetables. Thus, a bowl of fresh fruit is common on Iranian tables, and vegetables are standard sides to most meals. These are not only enjoyed fresh and ripe as desserts but are also combined with meat and form accompaniments to main dishes. When fresh fruits are not available, a large variety of dried fruits such as dates, figs, apricots, and peaches are used instead.

  • Iran's Traditional Foods
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ZENODO Iran’s Traditional Foods: A Heritage Worth Renewing By Soroush Niknamian ention Persia (modern-day Iran) in everyday con- versation, and you will likely evoke immediate Mimages of Persia’s rich cultural heritage—ornate woven carpets or the elegant poetry of Rumi, for example. However, Iran also deserves to be known and celebrated for its rich and varied traditional cuisine. In the past, traditionally prepared items that featured raw milk and bone broth were commonplace in the animal-fat-rich Iranian diet. These included Lighvan, a semihard cheese made from raw sheep’s milk (or a combination of raw sheep’s and goat’s milk), and Ab-goosht, a peas- ant stew that translates literally as “meat water” because it relies on the core ingredients of lamb shanks and neck bones to create a broth abundant in minerals, gelatin and collagen. Nowadays, unfortunately, the Iranian diet is much more likely to highlight cheap (in the short term) food industry standards such as vegetable oils, margarine, soy and sodas. Iran also has succumbed to Western fears about animal fats. As a result of this ongoing “nutrition transition,” diet-related chronic diseases are on the rise and are a leading cause of mortality.1 36 Wise Traditions WINTER 2016 From the 800s AD onward, Persia was inter- pomegranates, quince, apricots, prunes and Avicenna nationally admired for its scientific and cultural dates; and distinctive herbs, spices and flavoring leadership. The influential eleventh-century agents such as mint, parsley, saffron, cinnamon observed Persian philosopher and scientist Avicenna and rosewater.

  • What Makes a Restaurant Ethnic? (A Case Study Of
    FORUM FOR ANTHROPOLOGY AND CULTURE, 2017, NO. 13 WHAT MAKES A RESTAURANT ETHNIC? (A CASE STUDY OF ARMENIAN RESTAURANTS IN ST PETERSBURG) Evgenia Guliaeva Th e Russian Museum of Ethnography 4/1 Inzhenernaya Str., St Petersburg, Russia [email protected] A b s t r a c t: Using restaurants in St Petersburg serving Armenian cuisine as a case study, the article studies the question of what makes an ethnic restaurant ethnic, what may be learnt about ethnicity by studying a restaurant serving a national cuisine, and to what extent the image of Armenian cuisine presented in Armenian restaurants corresponds to what Armenian informants tell us. The conclusion is that the composition of the menu in these restaurants refl ects a view of Armenian cuisine from within the ethnic group itself. The representation of ethnicity is achieved primarily by discursive means. Neither owners, nor staff, nor customers from the relevant ethnic group, nor the style of the interior or music are necessary conditions for a restaurant to be accepted as ethnic. However, their presence is taken into account when the authenticity or inauthenticity of the restaurant is evaluated. Armenian informants, though, do not raise the question of authenticity: this category is irrelevant for them. Keywords: Armenians, ethnicity, ethnic restaurants, national cuisine, authenticity, St Petersburg. To cite: Guliaeva E., ‘What Makes a Restaurant Ethnic?

When it comes to Turkish cuisine food and drinks to feed the people live in Turkey, their preparation, cooking, preservation, the tools and techniques required for these processes and all the practices and beliefs developed around the eating manners and kitchen should be understood.
