Full of nostalgia, new inventions, and lots of soupy goodness.Ash Paz is Farsi for chef, but translate it literally and you get "soup maker." Ash is a particular range of soups almost unique to Iran, and their significance to Persian culture is signified by the fact that they define someone’s qualification as a chef i.e. if you can make ash, you make the grade in the kitchen. The Iranians have got it right: soup is important! The world's first cooked dishes almost certainly consisted of some form of broth, and the art of cooking, and indeed eating for pleasure rather than survival, evolved globally out of those early soups and stock pots.Soup is an inexpensive, fast, and tasty way to provide nutrition. Many communities and friendships have been formed over the preparation, distribution, and consumption of soup—as well as recipe swapping, which forms the foundations of this delightful book.
