## Description

At eight years old, Naz Deravian left Iran with her family during the height of the 1979 Iranian Revolution and hostage crisis. Over the following ten years, they emigrated from Iran to Rome to Vancouver, carrying with them books of Persian poetry, tiny jars of saffron threads, and always, the knowledge that home can be found in a simple, perfect pot of rice. As they traverse the world in search of a place to land, Naz's family finds comfort and familiarity in pots of hearty aash, steaming pomegranate and walnut chicken, and of course, tahdig: the crispy, golden jewels of rice that form a crust at the bottom of the pot. The best part saved for last. In her debut cookbook, Bottom of the Pot, Naz, now an award-winning writer and passionate home cook based in L.A., opens up to us a world of fragrant rose petals and tart dried limes, music and poetry, and the bittersweet twin pulls of assimilation and nostalgia. In over 100 recipes, Naz introduces us to Persian food made from a global perspective, at home in any kitchen.

Review: Excellent recipes beautiful photographs and stories - To make tahdig....the crispy part of the rice I have several Persian cookery books.....married to an Iranian and living in Iran for a number of years so I have a lot of recipes in my repertoire. The book is beautifully written and you get a sense of Iranian family life. I made the tah dig and it turned out better than it ever had done so happy with my purchase. Lots more recipes to try.
Review: WOW - Bought this for me and my Persian girlfriend to enjoy together and WOW, it's an incredible book with beautiful pictures and stories. This is so much more than just another cook book. 100% worth the big price tag.
