A Taste of Persian Mornings
Wholesome Halim and sweet Shirmaal bread for the perfect breakfast or brunch
Halim is one of those dishes , in Iran, it’s the kind of breakfast you’d wake up early for on a chilly morning, shared with friends and neighbors, or the dish your mother would lovingly prepare overnight so it’s ready just in time for breakfast. Especially in fall and winter, nothing warms the heart quite like a bowl of Halim, with its comforting blend of wheat, lamb, and a hint of cinnamon on top.
In this workshop, you’ll not only learn how to prepare these dishes step by step, but also discover the cultural stories behind them why Halim is a cherished early-morning food across Iran, and how Shirmaal brings sweetness and warmth to family gatherings.
And then there’s Shirmaal Bread , soft, golden, and lightly sweet. It’s the kind of bread that feels like home, reminding you of childhood moments, teatime with family, or simple joys at the table. Its gentle sweetness isn’t overwhelming; instead, it makes every bite comforting and familiar.
In this workshop, we’ll bring these two classics to life. You’ll not only learn the techniques to make them step by step, but you’ll also carry with you the cultural stories and warmth behind each bite.
