The first
day of spring is celebrated in many parts of the MidEast as the New
Year (in Persian, “Nourouz”), a time of rebirth and renewal. Donia
Bijan’s new cookbook, Maman’s
Homesick Pie, introduces us to homecooking, Persian style,
supplemented by some of the techniques she learned in France and
opening her bistro in California. While the locale and recipes may
seem rather exotic, as she explains in this NPR interview the
book emphasizes how family-oriented cooking is truly universal.
