  • Irreverent Persia
    Irreverent Persia IRANIAN IRANIAN SERIES SERIES Poetry expressing criticism of social, political and cultural life is a vital integral part of IRREVERENT PERSIA Persian literary history. Its principal genres – invective, satire and burlesque – have been INVECTIVE, SATIRICAL AND BURLESQUE POETRY very popular with authors in every age. Despite the rich uninterrupted tradition, such texts FROM THE ORIGINS TO THE TIMURID PERIOD have been little studied and rarely translated. Their irreverent tones range from subtle (10TH TO 15TH CENTURIES) irony to crude direct insults, at times involving the use of outrageous and obscene terms. This anthology includes both major and minor poets from the origins of Persian poetry RICCARDO ZIPOLI (10th century) up to the age of Jâmi (15th century), traditionally considered the last great classical Persian poet. In addition to their historical and linguistic interest, many of these poems deserve to be read for their technical and aesthetic accomplishments, setting them among the masterpieces of Persian literature. Riccardo Zipoli is professor of Persian Language and Literature at Ca’ Foscari University, Venice, where he also teaches Conceiving and Producing Photography. The western cliché about Persian poetry is that it deals with roses, nightingales, wine, hyperbolic love-longing, an awareness of the transience of our existence, and a delicate appreciation of life’s fleeting pleasures. And so a great deal of it does. But there is another side to Persian verse, one that is satirical, sardonic, often obscene, one that delights in ad hominem invective and no-holds barred diatribes. Perhaps surprisingly enough for the uninitiated reader it is frequently the same poets who write both kinds of verse.

  • Outbreaks Where Food Workers Have Been Implicated in the Spread of Foodborne Disease. Part 4. Infective Doses and Pathogen Carriage

Although workers have been implicated in outbreaks, they were not always aware of their infections, either because they were in the prodromic phase before symptoms began or because they were asymptomatic carriers. Pathogens of fecal, nose or throat, and skin origin are most likely to be transmitted by the hands, highlighting the need for effective hand hygiene and other barriers to pathogen contamination, such as no bare hand contact with ready-to-eat food. The pathogens most likely to be transmitted by food workers are norovirus, hepatitis A virus, Salmonella, Shigella, and Staphylococcus aureus.

  • Best Hot Fudge Sundae
    $ In 1918, Lagomarcino’s candy shop had already found success selling hand-made candies. 25 Angelo and Luigia had ordered new lamps, custom-made booths and a soda fountain bar, and a HOT FUDGE new terrazzo floor installed. With these expenses, the Lagomarcino’s were watching every penny. Shortly after, a peddler entered the store selling hard candy and recipes. He took Angelo aside and told him he would sell him, and only him, a recipe for the perfect hot fudge. Angelo accepted the offer, and for 25 dollars he owned the recipe. Luigia was furious with him for spending so much money. Luckily for Angelo, the fudge was extremely popular, and we still use the same recipe today.

  • Shabestan Menu Edited 5%
    Here with a little Breadbeneath the Bough, A Flask Wine , aBook of Verse - and Thou Beside me singing in the Wilderness - Oh, Wilderness were Paradise enow! As Omar Khayam poetically said, food plays a major role in the life of the Persian people and Iranian hospitality is famed throughout the world. Considerable time and thought is given to the preparation of meals, and the most lavish foods are offered to the guest in a show of great hospitality. The first principle of Persian cuisine is to avoid putting all one’s faith into the one ingredient, or the ‘sweet - sour’ principle. One taste must be blended or balanced the other. The second principle is that all edibles are food. Not only the grape but the grape leaf can be eaten. This leads to an enormous range of combinations The third principle is that Fruits and nuts are not reserved for desert. No other cuisine has so successfully blended Fruits and nuts into the main course of the meal. Talk on persian cuisine would not be complete if we failed to mention caviar. Persian caviar which comes from the Caspian Sturgeon is well known for its quality and is served with accompaniments of chopped egg, onion and parsely. Certainly the most traditional food in persian cuisine is rice. Delicately perfumed, it appears in numerous varieties. Mixed with herbs such as mint, saffron, cinnamon, turmeric, dill and even with fruits, including barberries, orange peel, cherries and walnuts. When rice is cooked with a mixture of other ingredients it is called polo. When meat or sauces are laid over a plate of rice, it is referred to as chello, the most famous being chello kebab.

  • CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM Makes About 1 Quart by Dennis W
    1 CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM Makes about 1 quart By Dennis W. Viau; modified from several recipes I never liked chocolate ice cream. I don’t know why, but there is something about the flavor that isn’t right. However, I like chocolate milk. Click! Why not make chocolate ice cream with the same flavor used to make chocolate milk? That is how I came up with this recipe. I love this ice cream. Ingredients: 5 egg yolks (save the whites for making Cats’ Tongues) 1 egg 1 cup (270g) Nestle’s Quick (AKA Nesquick)1 (see notes at end) 1½ cups (355ml) milk or half and half 1 cup (237ml) heavy cream 2 teaspoons vanilla extract Directions: Combine the egg yolks, egg, and Quick in a small saucepan. Blend well with a whisk. Add the milk (or half and half) and blend. Place only enough water in a large sauce pan so that the small saucepan can rest lightly in the water. (Avoid using too much water as it might overflow, and possibly scald you, when the smaller pan is set inside.) Heat the water to boiling. Set the smaller saucepan in the boiling water and stir the custard mixture while it heats to 140°F2 (60°C). Use a digital thermometer to monitor. (The heating kills any bacteria that might be present in the egg yolks. Although the risk of salmonella infection is low, I think it is better to be safe than sorry.) Do not overheat, as this will cook the eggs and ruin the mixture. Remove from the heat and add the cream and vanilla extract.

  • TAKHT JAMSHEED PORTRAIT MENU INSERTS Updated Jan 2019
    Takht-e-Jamshid (Persepolis) was founded in 512BC by Darius the Great, and added-to over the next 150 years until it was captured from Darius III and burned to the ground by Alexander "The Great" in 331 BC. It was one of the wonders of the world. As a matter of fact, today it is a Unesco Heritage site. As for the art of sophisticated cookery in Iran, it can be traced to antiquity. It has, according to existing literature, preserved its basic mode of preparation for more than a thousand years, enhanced by refinement of dishes and new recipes created in the kitchens of royalty and ordinary folk. Iranian food is prepared with such delicate subtlety that every ingredient used can be tasted and every aromatic spice added can be appreciated The classic Middle East staples of lamb, wheat bread, eggplant and yogurt are also the staples of Iran. But Iranian cuisine sets itself apart by the cultivation and use of rice for almost every meal. "A loaf of bread, a jug of wine" may have satisfied Omar Khayyam, but the fact that the Iranians themselves pay highest tribute to their poet Firdausi, who wrote the Shah-nameh — an epic poem to the ruler said to have invented cooking — clearly marks their valued appreciation of gastronomy.
