Food has a magical ability to tap into our memories. It can carry us to places far-far away or very close to home; to a time almost forgotten or right at the forefront of our memory.
Listen as food blogger and cookbook author, Laura Bashar, shares her memories of Iran, her grandmother’s kabobs, and a Persian stew, dubbed Green Stew by Laura and her bother, with deep roots in her family’s heritage.
