Book description
A heartwarming story of resilience, homesickness, and good Persian cooking in 70 accessible recipes Hamed Allahyari cooks to connect--for that joyful moment you can say "salamati" (Farsi for "health" and "cheers") around the table. The food of his native Tehran is a resonant and delicious gift, and a way of staying bonded to a country he hasn't returned to for a decade. Hamed's food is anchored in tradition but accessible to all. The recipes are simple, celebratory, appealing, flexible, and full of flavor. As well as working as a chef and caterer, Hamed has road-tested his dishes at hundreds of cooking classes: he melds Persian culinary culture and an understanding of Western palates to create recipes that are truly his--and now ours to share. Beyond the recipes, Salamati is a gateway to Persia. "It's sharing my culture," says Hamed. "It's my dream that everyone tries Persian food. And with my food, they come into my family. They are sitting with me, with my grandparents, parents, and cousins, talking, sharing, and enjoying the feeling of being together."
