TASTER: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheMrtaster BUY IRAN JERSEYS: http://www.eBay.com/usr/iranjersey After exploring the city of Tehran for a few days, my epic road trip through Iran began in the city of Qom! Come with me as I learn how they make a traditional Iranian sweet called sohan! Sohan is a traditional sweet that originated in Qom during the Qajar Dynasty. It’s essentially a crunchy brittle or toffee made from wheat, butter, eggs, sugar, rose, saffron, cardamom, and nuts. My buddy Mr. Taster took me to a factory where they make it!

As I watched, they mixed the paste and added almonds and butter as they stirred it. It’s not a healthy sweet, so eat it in moderation! They even make a sugarless version for diabetics! Once they put the mixture on a pan, they mixed in some cardamom and rolled it into balls. After that, they flatten the balls out and bake them. Then, they let them become thick cookies, smash them, and then smash pistachios and almonds into them. It’s such a fun and intricate process. I even got to try to smash one myself. Next, I added a bunch of pistachios and almonds and molded it into a perfect circle. It was so much fun! Then, the excess cookie pieces that break off during the smashing process go back into the batter Where have you been?
