Narges: Persian Food Writer & Recipe Creator at YummCook

Welcome to my kitchen at YummCook, where I share authentic Persian recipes, traditional Iranian cooking methods, and food stories from Iran and neighboring countries.

I’m Narges, the recipe creator behind YummCook. I’m from Isfahan, Iran, a city known for its rich culture, traditional cuisine, and deep connection with Persian culinary heritage.
For the past 5 years, I have been exploring, preparing, and sharing authentic Persian recipes and traditional dishes from Iran and neighboring countries.

My goal is simple: to preserve the real flavors of Persian cuisine and help people around the world prepare these dishes with confidence in their own kitchens.

My Cooking Journey

Growing up with Persian food traditions inspired my passion for cooking and discovering the stories behind each dish.

Over the years, I have prepared and tested many traditional recipes, focusing on:

* Persian home cooking
* Regional Iranian dishes
* Traditional cooking techniques
* Middle Eastern flavors
* Practical recipes for home cooks

Many of the recipes published on YummCook are prepared and tested directly by me to ensure that the instructions, ingredients, and cooking methods create reliable results.

At YummCook, every recipe is created with attention to:

My Connection With Persian Cuisine

Persian cuisine is more than a collection of recipes. It represents family traditions, hospitality, history, and the unique flavors of different regions of Iran.

From the traditional dishes of Isfahan to recipes from other parts of Iran and neighboring countries, I share food stories and cooking methods that connect people with authentic regional cuisine.

Before publishing a recipe, I review the cooking process carefully.
