A beautiful celebration of the flavors that connect Iran, Italy, and the Eastern Mediterranean, Pomegranates and Artichokes is both a cookbook and a deeply personal story of home, heritage, and discovery.
After moving from Iran to Italy, photographer and food writer Saghar Setareh found herself drawn to the remarkable parallels between the cuisines of her homeland and her adopted country. Through more than 80 recipes, she traces a culinary journey across borders, revealing how ingredients, traditions, and family recipes evolve and intertwine through the immigrant experience.
Organized into three chapters—Iran, In Between, and Italy—the book features everything from vibrant Persian breakfasts and celebratory feasts to Sicilian stuffed artichokes, Aleppian sweet-and-sour meatballs, braised guinea hen with pomegranate, and classic Roman desserts.
Filled with stunning photography and thoughtful storytelling, Pomegranates and Artichokes is an inspiring volume for cooks, travelers, and anyone who believes the best meals are those that bring cultures together.
