Persian Spices From the Source

Does your spice rack hold a tin of tart, moist little barberries? Or how about strongly sour dried lime powder? These are just a couple of the seasonings essential for Persian recipes. Louisa Shafia, a cook and food writer whose father was born in Tehran, has assembled a kit with 11 tins and bottles of these ingredients for traditional Persian dishes, all from a reliable importer.
