Jamjoji is a compilation of food memories and recipes that have been painstakingly collected from the Parsi community. Food is an integral part of the Parsi culture. Many dishes have ceremonial value, while others simply reflect the mix of Persian, Indian, and Colonial influences that have shaped the Parsi population. In most cases, these recipes are greatly treasured, and like family, heirlooms were passed down from generation to generation. Some recipes were handed down through years of practice and careful instruction, others are scribbled in aging recipe books and on pieces of paper. As the diaspora spreads across the world, Jamjoji keeps the tradition of Parsi cooking alive by weaving food and narratives together, acting as a virtual scrapbook for stories and recipes. For those living in the USA, Jamjoji also offers a monthly subscription box service that delivers the vital dry ingredients and any special equipment needed to recreate an authentic Parsi recipe in the simplest way possible Learn more on our website
