From Kurdistan With Love

Heat in the microwave for 2 – 3 minutes or on the stove top or add 2 tbsp of water to a pan on medium heat, add the biryani and chicken and cook for 4 –5 minutes. Enjoy with the Turmeric Mast.

Laroot’s tribute to the Kurdish struggle for self-determination, our multitextured chicken biryani (from the Farsi term for “fried rice”) is prepared using the same step-by-step process outlined in traditional Kurdish recipes. Our biryani rice is seasoned with over a dozen micronutrient-rich spices to cover the six Ayurvedic rasas, while organic roast chicken, Yukon potatoes, dried apricot, and almonds provide fiber, protein, and vitamins C and E.

Ingredients: Biryani Rice: basmati rice, spanish onion, garlic, yukon potato, snap pea, dried apricot, slivered almond, biryani spice mix (Coriander, Black Pepper, Caraway Seed, Cinnamon, Cloves, Onion, Red Chili Pepper, Garlic, Ginger, Turmeric, Bay Leaf, Cardamom, Anise Seed, Nutmeg, Mace), vegetable stock, Roast Chicken: organic chicken breast, olive oil, salt, turmeric, cardamom, red chili pepper, onion, garlic, ginger, Turmeric Mast (yogurt): organic greek probiotic yogurt, dried turmeric, lemon juice, parsley

 


Shopska Marousolata

Parts Included: 
1. Shopska Marousolata
2. Lemon Vinaigrette
3. Spiced Feta

 

Allow the dressing to become room temperature, shake well and then pour your preferred amount over the salad, top with feta and enjoy.


Laroot’s version of the Balkan shopska salad has been delicately tweaked to include an optimal balance of local herbs, which add piquancy and flavor without the addition of spices. Tangy feta cheese and the optional roasted chicken, meanwhile, up the lean-protein content. We recommend that this salad be consumed during the day, to allow for proper digestion of the raw ingredients. (Fun fact: the shopska salad was voted Best European Salad by the European Parliament in 2016!)

Ingredients: romaine, dill, parsley, scallion, lemon juice, kosher salt, roasted chicken/smoked wild-caught salmon (lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, olive oil) lemon vinaigrette: (lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper), spiced feta: (feta cheese, aleppo)

 

 

Ajiaco Colombiano

Parts included: 

1. Chicken or Herb and Potato Soup

2. Capers

3. Crema (depending on dietary preference)

 

In a pot, heat the soup for 5 minutes until simmering or microwave for 2 – 4 minutes. Top with the capers and crema.

 

The origins of this dish are heavily debated between Colombia, Peru, and Cuba, but we discovered it through a friend from Bogota who swears by it as a cure-all. A satiating chicken stew full of vitamins, minerals, protein, and antioxidants makes it a dish that strengthens the immune system and aids in disease prevention. The main event here is Guascas, a plant that grows in the Andes Mountains of Colombia and is referred to as the 'gallant soldier' in English-speaking countries. It adds such a distinct herbaceous flavor unique to Ajiaco.

Ingredients: Potatoes, Corn, Spinach, Vegetable Broth (Water, Onions, Celery, Carrots, Thyme, Garlic), Chicken, Creme Fraiche, Onions, Spring Onions, Garlic, Kosher Salt, Capers, Oregano, Black Pepper
