Transform your everyday dishes into an exotic Persian feast just by using herbs! We're taking a deep dive into the wonderful world of herbs in Persian cooking with Ginain Greyes from Cook the Garden podcast. Ginain, a pro at growing her own herbs, shares practical tips on nurturing herbs like mint, cilantro, basil, dill, and more, even if you only have a small patio space. She shared her experience cooking the iconic Persian soup called Ash Reshteh, which is a delightful blend of noodles, beans, and herbs. Bita and Beata shared their Ash Reshteh recipes when Ginain featured them on her podcast!
But what do you do when you've got a bountiful herb harvest that you can’t use? That's where the second part of our conversation with Ginain gets interesting. She guides us through the process of preserving and drying herbs, ensuring you have a stash ready for your culinary adventures throughout the year. We explore multiple methods including hanging the herbs, freeze-drying, and using a dehydrator or even your oven. Join us and step up your cooking game with the delightful flavors of Persian herbs.
