My dear mother, Monir Taha, will be missed across the world. I will have proper words at a later time.
منیر طه، نخستین ترانه‌سرای #زن ایران درگذشت
منیر طه سراینده دلنشین‌ترین ترانه‌ها که به «اولین زن ترانه سرای» معروف بود عصر روز گذشته چهارشنبه ۱۰ اردیبهشت (۳۰ آپریل ۲۰۲۵) در ۹۶ سالگی در ونکوور کانادا چشم از جهان فرو بست./۱
Another amazing virtual cooking class @civickitchensf . Iranian-style brunch. Such a great and enthusiastic group. We prepared naan-e shirmal (milk bread) from scratch; sour cherry jam (also from scratch); nargesi (narcissus spinach eggs); Iranian-style tea; and all the sides.
Hope you can join me this Saturday June 17, 2023 for a virtual Iranian-style brunch cooking class @CivicKitchenSF . Only a couple of spots left. Info and sign up: civickitchensf.com/classes/?…
Thought everyone might need a little something comforting to tuck into. My latest @nytcooking The chicken and rice together with the rice absorbing the aromatic saffron, turmeric and chicken juices. Recipe: cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/…

SABZEH DAY 1: Place 1 cup lentils in a large bowl. Look through the lentils and pick out any little stones, or shriveled up or broken lentils. Add cold water to the lentils, to cover at least by 2 inches. More details: instagram.com/p/Cpc-XCDpVpT/… #botpsabzeh2023 #nowruz
SABZEH DAY 5: Take a peek under the cloth. Can you see tiny little sprouts popping up? Signs of life and hope. Life and hope. Details: instagram.com/p/CpnjA09Pggd/… #botpsabzeh2023 #nowruz
SABZEH DAY 6 Details : instagram.com/reel/CpqF1IZDW…
Friends, we will begin sprouting our Nowruz sabzeh TOMORROW MONDAY MARCH 6. Nowruz means “new day” in Persian and sabzeh symbolizes new life and hope. Hope, peace, and freedom. Details: instagram.com/p/CpaletIPzcC/… #botpsabzeh2023

Listen carefully, people! Hear the voice of these defiant, courageous schoolgirls who are shouting #woman_life_freedom after a chemical attack on their school. They can’t breathe, yet they are still shouting: “death to child-murdering state”. I can’t stop my tears. What do you want from us, savages? Leave women alone! #Mahsa_Amini #SaveIranianSchoolgirls
I’m happy to be back @CivicKitchenSF for this virtual aash-e reshteh class. Aash is the foundation of Iranian cuisine and aash-e reshteh holds a special and symbolic place at the table, especially around Nowruz. Hope you can join us. Register: civickitchensf.com/classes/?…
Persian speakers, I’m looking for an English word that best describes and captures the meaning of لعاب in relation to cooking. “Thick” is not it.

In preparation for the highly anticipated end to this eventful #PersianNewYear
I can’t wait to sow my sabze seeds in looking forward to welcoming year #1402 with our sofreye hafstin – at Queens, NY
