Sadaf Sliced Shallot, 57gr

موسیر خشک صدف — ۵۷ گرم

Sadaf Sliced Shallot (mousir-e khoshk — dried Persian wild shallot) is one of the most distinctive, pungent, and singularly Persian flavour ingredients in existence — an intensely aromatic dried wild shallot with a sharp, deeply savoury, and almost fermented-like depth that is entirely its own and found in no other ingredient. Mousir is not simply dried onion or garlic: it is a specific variety of wild Persian shallot (Allium stipitatum) with a uniquely complex, bold, and lingering flavour that transforms even a small amount into a powerful seasoning agent. Its most celebrated and iconic use is mast-o-mousir — the beloved Persian yogurt dip made by rehydrating mousir in cold water, then mixing generously into thick strained yogurt with salt for a pungently fragrant, deeply savoury dip that is a constant and irreplaceable presence on the Iranian table, served alongside polo, kebab, khoresh, and as part of the traditional Persian spread. Sadaf’s sliced format is ready to rehydrate and use immediately — no peeling or preparation required. Sadaf is one of the most trusted brands in Persian and Middle Eastern pantry essentials. The 57gr jar is a long-lasting size, as mousir is used in small quantities for maximum impact.

Rehydrate a tablespoon of sliced mousir in cold water for 15–30 minutes until softened, drain, and stir generously into thick strained yogurt (mast) with salt for the classic Persian mast-o-mousir dip — serve alongside polo, kebab, and khoresh as an essential table accompaniment, add rehydrated mousir into Persian rice and tahdig for a deeply aromatic, pungent base layer, stir into khoresh and slow-cooked stews for a complex, savoury shallot depth that regular onion cannot replicate, use in marinades for kebab and grilled meats alongside saffron and lemon for a bold, authentically Persian flavour, mix into dressings, dips, and herb sauces wherever a sharp, pungent Persian shallot character is needed, or fry in butter or oil until golden and caramelised for a crispy, intensely aromatic garnish over rice and soup. The ingredient behind Iran’s most beloved yogurt dip — pungent, aromatic, and unmistakably Persian.
