Food By The Fireside

Winter In The Alps

This book is a celebration of that time; a compilation of memories, stories and beautiful recipes that underline the depth and broad appeal of this great and enduring food culture. In Pardiz, Darling-Gansser shows how seamlessly Persian food fits with trends of today: flourishing food markets; the primacy of local ingredients; the health-giving aspects of vegetable-centric dishes; and the joys of a shared table. The latter is a theme in her book—and in her life. In her choice of recipes—recognizing the great virtue that is simplicity—Darling-Gansser provides a sense of the diversity of Persian food—whether it is served in a restaurant, eaten at home, prepared for a picnic, or enjoyed on the street, the setting can determine what is served. Ultimately, she encourages readers to embrace the sociability that goes with the food as much as the food itself.
