the world in your pocket

Farida began to cook regularly when, aged 25, she moved to California from her home in Baku, Azerbaijan.
Food is an important part of Azerbaijani culture and Farida found that the best way to eat the delicious Azeri food of her childhood was to cook it herself. Today her online Azerbaijani cookbook is so popular that she is working on a real world cookbook as well.
On her website you can learn to cook traditional food like Pilaff and Baklava as well as Azeri versions of soups, stews, eggs and many more delicious looking meals.

Hello..I have read the writing, its nice but i want to say something cause this also interests me as a Turkish woman
Turkey and Azerbaijani are fraternal contries..I mean we are very close to each other..But i should say that Pilaf and Baklava’s origin is coming from the Turkey.
… Bon appetit
Hello! …It’s true that Pilaf and Baklava are also Turkish foods. Maybe I should have tried to pick out some dishes that are more distinctively Azerbaijani.
I have also eaten Pilaf in Uzbekistan (it is called palov) and India. I belive it is eaten in Iran as well. So it is a very international dish!
Afiyet olsun! And thanks for writing
