Here are some Persian foods and
beverages to help you make an educated choice the next time you order from a
Persian or a Best Mediterranean restaurant Las Vegas.
Persian Coffee and Tea
There’s no such thing as great as
actually going to market and purchasing “Persian Tea”. The Iranians would enjoy
Ceylon tea or Darjeeling tea, mixed with Earl Grey. The Earl Grey will give the
tea a perfumed flavor and smell. In order to brew your cup of tea, you would
need a teapot, more ideally a tea kettle, a glass mug, and if you are fancy,
then a Russian-style Samovar. Start by boiling the water, and rinse the glass
with boiling water in order to keep tea warm for longer. Then brew tea in the
teapot. In order to keep water warmer, you should stow teapot upon the kettle.
The Iranians enjoy tea for
breakfast – as well as for lunch, and dinner, as well as for after-dinner – and
it is commonly served with rock candy, pistachios, and Nan (flat bread).
Shammi Kebab
Shammi is essentially a patty made with meat and
legumes. While you may not find Shammi kebabs on a lot of restaurant menus, you
can definitely try it in a restaurant that serves Persian and Mediterranean food Las Vegas. It could be made with ground beef, chicken, lamb, or it
could be made completely with vegetables. Add some spices such as paprika,
saffron, turmeric, cinnamon, chickpeas or split peas, and finally eggs in the
food processor. You may add some lemon juice and chopped potatoes. Form a
patty, roll it in flour, egg yolk, and then panko crumbs. And finally fry it in
canola or olive oil.
