ABOUT Koobideh Kabab RECIPE

This Persian delicacy is one of the best cuisine for tinkering your tongue . The tangy spice Sumac brings some flavor which is unrecognizable after cooking ,but it makes a real difference. So still you can feel the meat flavor and this recipe takes very less spices no binding. Sumac comes from the berries of a wild bush that grows wild in all Mediterranean areas, especially in Sicily and southern Italy, and parts of the Middle East(Iran). It is an essential ingredient in Arabic cooking, being preferred to lemon for sourness and astringency.The berries are dried and crushed to form a coarse purple-red powder. Fire grill makes it more savory.
