Persian cuisine has been flourishing in the world as one of the greatest gastronomies that date back from the Persian empire (550 BC to 330 BC) till modern-day Iraq with parts of Saudi Arabia and Central Asia. The cuisine is quite complex, diverse in flavours and aroma with highly integrated culinary techniques. Ingredients such as rose petals, bread, saffron, turmeric, almonds, nuts, pomegranate form the bases of authentic dishes from the region.
