This is a teaser post. As in, I’m teasing you with a dreamy list of ingredients: saffron, rosewater, rice, almonds, pistachios!
What, oh what kind of yummy Persian food could this be for?
Recipe (by my lovely friend) will be posted on Monday. Until then, hope you’ll have many fragrant things to smell & yummy things to eat.
ps. The pretty, striped kitchen towel? Glad you ask: my friend and I each bought one when traveling together in Yazd, Iran.

So many possibilities..
So wonderfully true! As my Twitter friends noted, add some berberries and chicken and you could easily turn this into a tahchin or javaher polo etc
Is it Persian Rice Pudding?
very very VERY close … in fact, yes! 🙂
I saw rosewater, pistachios and almonds and immediately thought: baklava!
Me too! But then, rice is not in that. 🙂

I am in love with the hearts.
my maman joon made those! 🙂
Sounds tempting…
wait till you see! 😉
Please include what to look for in rose water so you get a good kind.
dear Patty, if possible try to open bottle or otherwise get a sniff. Avoid ones that have too pungent or floral a smell. You want one with a delicate touch. Also, whichever brand you end up with, use very sparingly. A LITTLE goes a long way. Hope this helps? xo
Yes and thank you! Looking forward to your recipe this coming week.
