Saffron Ash (thick herb and noodle soup) in a desert village in Iran.

The children go to the orchard to gather almonds. They collect almonds for their mother so she can cook saffron and almond pudding (*sholeh-zard*) for them. You will see beautiful scenes of rural life in the village of Esfahak, located in Iran's hottest city. Scenes from the life of a mother with five sons. The mother and children strive to live in the simplest way possible. #rural #nomadic #homemadefood #iranianfood #persiancuisine #iranian #persianfood #rurallife #traditionalcooking #traditionalfood
