Trying Kashk Bademjan and Baghali polo

Yesterday, I was able to try kashk bademjan and baghali polo through a potluck dinner. I was excited to see them because the only Persian food I tried were the kebabs and roasted tomatoes, so I really wanted to try other types of authentic, home-cooked Persian food. Kashk bademjan, the Persian eggplant dip, had a mild flavor and paired really well with the flatbread (I think it was lavash). The baghali polo also had a mild taste and the texture of the fava beans went well with the fluffiness and softness of the rice. I never had rice with dill, so the overall color and fragrance was interesting. There were also some crunchy rice bits which were pleasant to crunch on; it also reminded me of ‘nurungji’, a Korean word that refers to the thin layer of crunchy rice left after cooking rice in a pot. Since the only Persian food I had were the kebabs that had strong seasoning, I learned that Persian food can also be mild but at the same time flavorful. Upon reflection, I realized that Persian cuisine has elements of both South and Western Asian cuisines. For instance, it has a diverse range of rice dishes like most South Asian countries, but at the same time has dips that are more prevalent in Western Asia countries. Also, ingredients such as eggplants and dill are not commonly used as the main ingredients for Korean dishes, so those ingredients working as the main character was interesting. I hope to try more Persian food in the future.
