My wife is nearly at the third trimester and has been craving lavashak. We managed to find frozen sour cherries and we went to work last night. Sadly, she stole a piece before I could take a picture.

How to make pomegranate molasses?

4 Upvotes

I want to make fesenjan but can't get any pomegranate concentrate or molasses where I'm at. I've got four ripe pomegranates... Any suggestions on how to best turn this into thick syrupy deliciousness? Should I just blend the arils, strain, and slowly cook it down till thickened and reduced? Merci!

Hi! I’m not very impressed with the Sadaf kashk that’s at most Middle Eastern grocery stores. What other brands would you recommend that you can get in the US? Links to the ones you like would be appreciated. 🙏

My wife is 22 weeks pregnant and the cravings and hunger are starting to get stronger. She wanted mahicheh polo, but I only had ox tail in the freezer.

I threw the meat in the pressure cooker this morning before starting work. Then I cooked the rice and prepped the sabzi khordan, salad, etc 30 minutes before lunch. It turned out great!

Picknick ideas

15 Upvotes

In a couple of weeks I'll be 2 months together with my Persian girlfriend (hurray!) and so I thought I'd arrange a picknick.

Drinks are easy: I'd make some hot water and bring some tea
Side-snacks: nuts, pistachios, grapes, candies,..
But for food I'm not so sure. I'm experienced at cooking, but not Persian dishes (for instance I haven't made a dish like tahchin yet).

Any ideas?

In my city there's an Iranian food market

Edit: it should be spelled picnic instead of picknick :P
