Celebrate Persian New Year with green recipes and spring cleaning
CNN
Reset your year with green dishes filled with fresh herbs and a clean home for the Persian New Year, also known as Nowruz.
This celebration of spring is filled with symbolism around rebirth and renewal, because spring is a time when life is coming back after a long, cold winter, said Yasmin Khan, the London-based human rights campaigner turned author of "The Saffron Tales: Recipes from the Persian Kitchen" and "Zaitoun: Recipes and Stories from the Palestinian Kitchen." These two cookbooks from Khan inspire and provide a window into the cultures and stories of people from the Middle East through food. Khan's latest work, "Ripe Figs: Recipes and Stories from the Eastern Mediterranean," will be published on May 4.More Related News
