موسیر صدف
Mousir — dried Persian shallot — is one of the most distinctive and beloved flavour agents in Iranian cuisine, with a pungent, garlicky depth that is entirely its own. Unlike regular dried onion or garlic, Mousir has a uniquely sharp, fermented-like intensity that transforms yogurt dips, rice dishes, and stews with just a small amount.

How to Use It
Rehydrate in cold water, then mix into thick yogurt (Mast) with a pinch of salt for Mast-o-Mousir — the iconic Persian yogurt dip that is a staple of every Iranian table. Stir into rice dishes, Polo, and Tahdig for a deeply aromatic base. Add to stews and Khoresh for a savoury, complex depth. Use as a flavourful seasoning in dips, dressings, and marinades wherever a bold, Persian-style shallot flavour is needed.
Pungent, aromatic, and unmistakably Persian — the ingredient behind Iran's most beloved yogurt dip.
