Senior Aaron Mairzadeh’s traditions originate from Iran. The rice and potato dish is called tadig (which literally translates to “bottom of the pot”) a staple dish of the Persian cuisine. Another traditional Persian dish is chelo khoresh, a type of stew prepared with diced tomatoes, string beans and beef. According to Mairzadeh, “On Friday nights, my family and I say a blessing for the wine and the challah, and then we eat.” Pictured is an array of dishes that represent the foundation of the Persian culture, which includes a soup with abgoosht and gondi.
