Street food Khoresh Bademjan — the authentic version
The best Khoresh Bademjan I've ever had came from a street stall, not a restaurant. The sweet-sour with pomegranate intensity was completely different — more direct and uncompromised. barberries was used without hesitation, the way it should be.
the sofreh spread on the floor is the traditional Iranian dining setting. The a communal sofreh tablecloth feast setting meant eating standing up or on a low stool, which is how this food is supposed to be encountered. rose water sharbat was sold right next to it. Don't wait to find the 'right' restaurant. Find the street version first.
