SUMMARY:Istanbul Modern and Seti's Table
DESCRIPTION:walnuts, garlic, dried mint and kashk. Seti picked this dish for Laura and Sayat to turn into an Istanbul Modern dish.

Borekas

We turn many things (vegetables, breads, fruits, dough) into pouches to be stuffed in the Middle East. Borekas can be made from phyllo, puff pastry, yufka or yeasted dough. We picked borekas (boreks or bouregs) for Seti to prepare for this event.

Shirazi Salad

Seti is bringing one of Iran's most refreshing salad's to appetizers. We're excited to celebrate the bounty of the California tomato season with Persian flavors.

Salmon Naya

Kibbe naya (Lebanese) or cig kofte (Turkish) are the fundamental Middle Eastern tartar. Laura and Sayat use the flavors from this heavily seasoned dish to make a delicate salmon tartar.

Shirin Polo & Lamb Karniyarik

Pilaf is a dish that unites all the countries on the Silk Route West of China. Iran is the birthplace of polo dating back to the first recipe in 11th century by Ibn Sina. This is the beginning of a tradition that created Ozbek polo, biryanis and jambalayas. Seti brings one of the most famous polos, Shirin polo or jeweled rice out of modern Iran. Sour orange, saffron, almonds, and pistachios make a sweet, sour, fluffy and comforting polo. We'll save the story of karniyarik (lamb stuffed eggplant) to the feast.

Baklava Cake and Pistachio Ice Cream

We will pair Seti's baklava cake with our home-made pistachio icre cream.
