Persian Spice Set

11 Essential Seasonings for Cooking the Fragrant Food of Iran

The food of Iran is filled with spices, herbs, and flowers, many of which are unique to Persian cuisine. Inside the spice set you’ll find the seasonings for a wide range of recipes from Iran.

This is a perfect starter collection for those who are new to Persian cooking, or who grew up with Persian food and want to start cooking it themselves. Along with individual spices, it contains advieh spice mix, a seasoning blend for Persian rice and meat dishes. It also contains a mix of herbs known as sabzi, best known for its use in the spring/summer stew ghormeh sabzi.
