We’re diving into the archives and sharing one of our favorite episodes of the Modern Persian Food podcast – our interview with stand-up comedian and Food Network host Dan Ahdoot!
We explore some of the lesser-known Persian dishes and ingredients and what Dan refers lovingly to as “Persian Trucker Food”. Dishes that hit the spot and stick to the ribs, like Dizi, Kaleh Pacheh, and Aash Sholeh Ghalamkar to name a few.
It’s a fun conversation as we get to know Dan’s food preferences and chat about normalizing Persian cuisine in today’s food-diverse society. We also talk about other up-and-coming Persian food personalities and brands which we include as future guests on the podcast! Check out that episode as well, links are below.
