From our family,
to your table.

Traditional Persian recipes,
lovingly reimagined.
“We agreed that we wanted everyone to have and share our recipes. We believe recipes are meant to be shared, cooked, and enjoyed over and over again.”
We developed, documented, and tested our family recipes together. Our long days in the kitchen became this collection of Persian food, reimagined with plant-based ingredients.
For me, Roya, the cookbook was a return to the flavors of my childhood. For me, Tracy, it was a new way to cook the dishes our family has loved for years. For both of us, it is an invitation to gather around the table.
As we wrote together, “Food is meant to be shared, and mealtime has a way of bringing people together in the most special way.”
The Vegan Persian Kitchen is part of Orange & Joon, the creative home for projects inspired by family, beauty, and the things we make together. Roya also co-founded Lightjoon , a San Diego studio creating handcrafted, sound-reactive light art.
