Publishers Text

With colorful notes that reflect her family's traditions, Maideh Mazda offers readers the possibility of creating the delicate flavors of Persian cuisine. Maideh prioritizes economy and availability of ingredients, while at the same time offering wholly authentic recipes for such delicacies as Pomegranate Sauce, Ashe Reshte -- a hearty beef noodle and lentil soup scented with cinnamon -- and Ashe Torsh, a delicate dried fruit soup with cinnamon and mint. Notes on preparation and reflections on her experience of Persian food and eating customs growing up in a traditional Azerbijian household make this book "a pleasure to read" (The New York Times).
