This dish means so much to me. Big twist on a Faloodeh from Iran, Here’s the gist, read on if you love me.

rooh afza | frozen aerated yogurt | rhubarb curd | strawberry granita | almond milk | pistachio

I have a tendency to get a little too detailed when it comes to kitchen processes. But while working at @jamils.to I’ve been trying to dial that back a bit—just a bit;)—and follow my palate more than the numbers. This dish is a reflection of that: a little freewheeling with some controlled technique.

Each year, I make a strawberry rhubarb something in memory of my mom. Today happens to be her birthday, so it feels both timely and a little magical to be serving this dish here at Jamil’s. Happy Birthday, Mom 💛

Most of my dishes have someone behind them—usually a friend or colleague. Thank you @sensuousdogchair for letting me sneak this onto her magical menu, and for all the tips, and tricks. Couldn’t have done it without you—and wouldn’t want to. This also wouldn’t have come together without @kylewpaton @mattjjsellner @j.a.l.i.l @emmatanaka @sarheise @scot.hamilton2
@instaurora for understanding the grind
Don’t get at me for sans vermicelli/basil seeds
