This joyful class celebrates the arrival of spring and the spirit of renewal through the flavors and traditions of Nowruz, the Persian New Year. Join Iranian-American chef and author Omid Roustaei for a hands-on afternoon of cooking, storytelling, and gathering around the table. Meaning “new day,” Nowruz is a 3,000-year-old celebration rooted in nature, togetherness, and fresh beginnings.
 

Throughout the class, Omid will guide you through dishes traditionally enjoyed during the 13 days of Nowruz, weaving cultural history and personal stories along the way. Together, you will prepare Salad Shirazi with tomato, cucumber, and mint; Aash Reshteh, a nourishing herb and noodle soup finished with garlic-mint oil; Sabzi Polo ba Mahi, fragrant herbed rice with saffron fish; and Shirini Keshmeshi, delicate rosewater and raisin cookies.

 
Warm, vibrant, and full of meaning, this class is a delicious way to welcome the new season.

 

At each Class on the Farm you will get the chance to enjoy Bellsong Creamery cheeses, sip a glass of something special, and gather around a beautifully prepared meal.
