Torshi in Egypt is pickles ,it is our local pickles that you can’t get enough with despite it is not good for high blood pressure !!
Anyhow I found out that in Iran they got Torshi too ,I wonder if it has the same taste like the one we have in Egypt , Dear Shahrzad posted the recipe which similar to ours.
I love Torshi especially the Baladi Torshi. Baladi Torshi other than the homemade Torshi is made in especial shops we call as Torshi laboratories, do not ask me why they are called like this because I do not know !!
Now I do not know whether Torshi is originally an Iranian or an Egyptian , to tell you the truth I will not be surprised if it turned originally an Iranian because our cuisine is a mix from the Middle East cuisines.
If you ever visit you Egypt ,then you must eat Torshi ;)
wow, so interesting post. Do you make torshi with vinegar? Then it would be good for high blood pressure..
ReplyDeleteWe have something name as "Shouri" which is made by salt instead of vinegar and its not good for people who have high blood pressure..
When i visit Egypt someday insha'allah, i will try your torshi too.. :)
never tried it lol
ReplyDelete@Shahrzaad, yeah we make it with a lot of Vinegar lol !! I do not think Shouri will work in Egypt
ReplyDeleteanyhow you welcome anytime to Egypt dear and for sure insh Allah ask for torshi whether beside Foul and Tamima or beside kabab;)
@Rani, why ?? you have to try it now :)
