Fall for Persian Pies

Join us for an exciting exploration of Persian-inspired pies perfect for Thanksgiving and fall. We kick off the episode by sharing our love for the big fall holiday, Thanksgiving, a time of gratitude and family togetherness, and how we blend Persian and American traditions at our holiday tables. This year, we've introduced a new interactive format where each presents unique pie recipes we've developed and shares creative culinary ideas for savory and sweet pies. Our goal is to inspire you to embrace cross-cultural dining experiences, enriching your cultural identity through the joy of food.   Our Ask The Beats segment is inspired by a recent listener interaction who asked us to take a closer look at Shirazi Kalam Polo. We share our personal experiences and tips for making this vibrant cabbage and mini meatball dish a show-stopping addition to any table. Join us as we celebrate the beauty and flavors of fusion cuisine and get ready for upcoming episodes that promise to deepen your culinary journey.   Links to previous Thanksgiving episodes: Episode 160: Fall Flavors for a Persian-Inspired Thanksgiving  Episode 111: Persian American Thanksgiving Episode 60:  Persian Thanksgiving Leftovers  Episode 59:  Persian Thanksgiving Episode 58: Lubia Polo | Green Bean Rice Episode 57: Zereshk Polo | Barberry Rice   All Modern Persian Food podcast episodes can be found at Episodes   Sign up for the email newsletter here!   Check us out on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube   Subscribe to the Modern Persian Food podcast on your favorite podcast player, and share this episode with a friend.   Opening and closing music composed by Amir Etemadzadeh, www.amirschoolofmusic.com   Podcast production by Alvarez Audio
