Advieh-E Khoresh
Great Taste Award winner 2022, Advieh E-Khoresh (Khoresht) is the epitome of mood food. Advieh holds a central place in the Persian kitchen, much like garam masala in Indian cuisine or Ras El Hanout in Moroccan cooking. Rich with honeyed notes from a sublime blend of 6th-century BC herbs and spices, Advieh, pronounced (/æd-v/), loosely translates from Farsi to mean ‘spice mixture,’ with ‘Khoresh’ generally meaning ‘stewing.’
