WINNER, FOOD52 PIGLET AWARD, 2014

Every once in a while I pick up a cookbook and want to cook everything in it, which was the case with this one.
--Martha Rose Shulman, The New York Times

"Louisa does a beautiful job of weaving the traditional Persian culinary palette into something of her own. She takes fantastical ingredients--rose water, pomegranates, sumac, and saffron--and spins them into an inspired and unique collection of recipes that are fresh, bright, and brilliantly full of flavor."
--Heidi Swanson, author of Super Natural Every Day

"This is a highly evocative book telling the story of the marvelous cuisine of Iran, one of my favorites and one that has yet to be properly discovered in the West."
--Yotam Ottolenghi, coauthor of Jerusalem

"The New Persian Kitchen is the perfect introduction to Persian cooking, full of classic ingredients and not-so-traditional ones, like tofu and quinoa. This book has something for everyone: practical recipes, anecdotes about the culture and history of Iran, and beautiful photography."
--Firoozeh Dumas, author of Funny in Farsi

Reseña del editor:

This luscious and contemporary take on the alluring cuisine of Iran featuring 75 recipes for both traditional Persian dishes and modern reinterpretations using Middle Eastern ingredients.

In The New Persian Kitchen, acclaimed chef and Lucid Food blogger Louisa Shafia explores her Iranian heritage by reimagining classic Persian recipes from a fresh, vegetable-focused perspective. These vibrant recipes demystify Persian ingredients like rose petals, dried limes, tamarind, and sumac, while offering surprising preparations for familiar foods such as beets, carrots, mint, and yogurt for the busy, health-conscious cook. The nearly eighty recipes—such as Turmeric Chicken with Sumac and Lime, Pomegranate Soup, and ice cream sandwiches made with Saffron Frozen Yogurt and Cardamom Pizzelles—range from starters to stews to sweets, and employ streamlined kitchen techniques and smart preparation tips.

A luscious, contemporary take on a time-honored cuisine, The New Persian Kitchen makes the exotic and beautiful tradition of seasonal Persian cooking both accessible and inspiring.
