## Resource

Hello! Today is Nowruz, the Persian/ Iranian new year. So I'm re-sharing with you this episode about Persian Culinary History and Culture through the millennia. Thinking of all the Iranian people who are suffering and wishing them only the best and hoping for a swift resolution to all the destruction inflicted upon them currently. In the vast region from Anatolia to Central Asia, a rite or a festival ushering Spring, and marking the new year is celebrated at around 20th or 21st of March.  People in modern countries including  Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, India, Iran, Iraq, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan historically observe the Nowruz celebrations.
