They say food is gateway to someone's heart...well, primarily to male hearts but for me it's the gateway to my soul (a total separate argument from the eyes being the gateway to the soul!).
I'm all about good food and being a former pizza bagel type of gal in Brooklyn, once stepping in Iran I couldn't help but fall head over heals for the smorgasbord of food varieties there. The unique ingredients and herbs create a colorful flavor-sharing. The various spices and distinct methods of pairing and combination create fingerprints in every cuisine! From eating the brain and tongue of sheep to a delicious kebab dish your saliva will triple to the intoxicating aromas and different radical zings in every dish. From kebabs to stews, all dishes present more than one flavor served up on layers that keep taste buds guessing what it is and what's coming next.
To the power kebab and stew country I have incorporated my experience when I first was exposed to Iranian food on BookTrib.com.#redlipsintehran #foodislife #foodisart #buildon
