Dastarkhān (Iran)

About the Book

A fragrant, poetic, and deeply soulful journey through the saffron-scented kitchens, ancient bazaars, and festive tables of Iran — one of the world's oldest and most refined culinary civilisations. Dastarkhān (meaning "the spread table" in Persian) presents ten of Iran's most iconic dishes, each with a stunning full-page professional photograph, a complete ingredient list, a detailed step-by-step method, and an insider Chef's Tip. From the golden, shatteringly crisp Tahdig to the dark, jewel-like Ghormeh Sabzi, from the royal Fesenjan to the vibrant Zereshk Polo — this book captures the extraordinary elegance and depth of Persian cooking.
