Persian Food


The abundance of fruits and vegetables was unmatched in other kingdoms. It was the garden designs using canals and irrigation systems that contributed to this abundance. And while Persia is well known for her stews it was roasted lamb and goat that her people loved best.

The preparation of goat was much different than lamb. Both were treated the same for preparation for stews. But for roasting, lamb was simply rubbed with spices and crushed herbs and fastened to a spit or laid flat on a bed of coals covered by an iron grate. The goat took longer to prepare for a roast. It was soaked overnight in goat's milk. Rinsed and covered with a paste of spices and herbs. Then it was roasted much the same as lamb.

The accompanying dishes were simple. Rice with herbs or saffron. Stewed lentils. Flatbreads. Salads of artichoke. Spinach. Stewed potatoes and carrots. Sliced fruits. Dried fruits. Fresh cheeses and pickled vegetables.

In a traditional Persian household, the first meal of the day would include flat breads. Cheeses and jams. Boiled eggs. Sliced cucumbers and tomatoes. Sliced melon and berries. Dried figs and apricots. Always served with tea.

The mid day meal was usually a stew of meat, beans and vegetables. Or grilled fish and rice. Topped with herbs. Served with a thick flatbread that had a soft, fluffy interior.

A typical family meal for the end of the day included the leftover stew and a variety of stewed or roasted vegetables and platters of sliced fruits. And always a heaping tray of freshly made flat bread.

Traditional Persian feasts often took two days to prepare. The sweet desserts were prepared the day before and allowed to soak overnight in thick layers of honey or rose syrup. Goats were prepared and soaked. The day of the feast the rest of the meats were prepared and marinated. The lamb took hours to absorb the flavors, while poultry and fish were prepared just before roasting. Rice dishes were prepared with herbs and cheeses or simply plain. Stewed vegetables were prepared just before serving. In between the preparation of other dishes, fruits and cold vegetables were sliced and placed on platters then covered with a damp cotton cloth to prevent drying out.



Tar Halva is a very traditional Persian 
dessert made with rice flour, ground
cardamom and butter. It is sweetened
with a light saffron syrup that is mildly
scented with rosewater.

And we save the best for last. The drinks. Wines. Ciders from apples and pears. Sweet liquors from peaches and crushed berries. Always served with the rich and decadent desserts of pastries, cakes, and tarts. Always topped with finely chopped pistachios or walnuts or almonds. Decadent and delicious.

XERXES - The Animals of Persia




The Animals of Persia

It is of brief note of the reader’s interest in the animals of Persia. It is known that there are few of the more exotic animals original to the region. The large cats were long expired before even the father of the father of Cyrus was conceived.

The stories of old included the lion. The tiger. The panther. These animals survived to the east and the southwest. For the protection of their animals and their families, the nomads of the pre Persian era had whittled and wafted the feline enemies into regional extinction.

When Persia began to rise from these nomadic regions, Cyrus was gifted these large cats on many occasions. These cats were cared for at the palace by the bravest of men. When cubs were produced, these were trained with love and tenderness and thus became revered residents of every Persian palace. It was not unusual to see a son or daughter of Cyrus and later Darius escorted by a lioness or a panther while walking the streets.

Fish were another anthology to Persia. It was the variety of the bright oranges and the vibrant blues and yellows that paid homage to the new homeland. Canals and ponds were filled with fish from the surrounding kingdoms, often gifts paying homage to Cyrus and his merciful rule.

The birds were a sight to behold. In addition to the great Asian Peacock, there were long legged white cranes from the west, short legged blue cranes from the east, and pink flamingos from the north. Every songbird made homes in the grand gardens eating to their fill the lush insects thriving on well tended greenery. All birds of prey were revered.. eagles, hawks, falcons, and owls graced the skies of the cities and surrounding forests.

The horses of Persia were bred for stability and beauty and grace. White on white. Black on black. And black on chestnut were the featured favorites. Great care was taken to breed and raise them. Barns dotted fertile meadows on the edges of a town. Given prominence in the Persian culture. Coveted by and traded with the surrounding Kingdoms east and west.

Personal pets were an anomaly. Occasionally a merchant used a monkey or a parrot to attract his buyers. Domesticated felines and canines were unknown in the common household yet canines were abundant throughout the palaces.

Animals throughout Persia were well tended. Relied upon and respected for their contributions to the Kingdom. Service and beauty both recognized and acknowledged.
