Step-by-Step Recipe for Rice Flour Cookies with All Tips + Video

According to the Family Service of Saed News, cooking is both a skill and a technology for preparing food. A person who cooks is called a chef. While cooking is a daily activity to provide energy and satisfy hunger, it is also considered an art. It involves knowledge of ingredients, the art of seasoning (marination), baking, sauces, and more—each of which requires the creativity and skill of an experienced chef.

Cooking and food are a broad part of every culture. Even in large countries like Iran, each ethnic group has its own culinary traditions. Some cooking styles are deeply rooted in culture and even historical conflicts. For example, pizza-making—according to historical accounts of the wars between Iran and Greece—was practiced on warriors’ shields using available ingredients and rustic cheese.

Ingredients:

  • Rice flour

  • Eggs

  • Powdered sugar

  • Solid oil or butter

  • Cardamom powder

  • Rosewater

  • Saffron

  • Purslane seeds

The rice flour pastry, very popular in Kermanshah, is a traditional Iranian sweet. It is considered one of the best souvenirs of the city and is especially suitable for serving during celebrations such as Nowruz.
