Episode 155: Exploring Mirza Ghasemi

Episodes 101-200

Listen in as we journey through the world of Persian cuisine in our latest podcast episode. We start with an exploration of the delicious and iconic eggplant dish, Mirza Ghassami, from the northern region of Iran known as Shomal. We discuss its distinct smoky flavor, thanks to charred eggplant, and the ample use of garlic. Discover the versatility of this dish, as we share ways to make it vegan or vegetarian, and how to add it to your weekly meal plans or brunch spread.

In the second half of the episode, we answer this week’s Ask The Beats question regarding Persian food pantry staples and shed light on the accessibility of its ingredients. Submit your question to be featured on a future episode!
