Tahdig is the infamous "bottom of the rice pot" which slowly crisps up and turns golden brown through the cooking process. This weeks variation is a jeweled rice of rose scented saffron basmati with barberries, Persian Pistachios, toasted almonds, candied orange zest and more! Beverage director Sarah Boisjoli is going to talk about all things sherry and pair something beautiful to tie the whole thing together. Proceeds from this week's class will be going to Tanabel, a refugee powered organization working currently to provide food and aid to refugee families in need!
