Faloodeh ( Persian: فالوده, romanized: fālūde) or paloodeh ( Persian: پالوده, romanized: pālūde) is a traditional Iranian cold dessert similar to a sorbet. [1] [2] It consists of thin vermicelli-sized noodles made from starch in a semi-frozen syrup containing sugar and rose water. [3] [4] [5] Faloodeh is often served with lime juice and sometimes ground pistachios.
In Iran, faloodeh is sold in ice cream stores and coffee shops in flavors such as pistachio, saffron, rosewater and honey, and can be served alongside bastani sonnati, a traditional Persian ice cream. Faloodeh Shirazi ( Persian: فالوده شیرازی, romanized: fālūde Shirāzi), the version from the city of Shiraz, is particularly well-known. [6]
In 2023, the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Tourism, and Handicrafts added faloodeh-making to Iran's List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. [7]
History
The Persian word paloodeh is from the verb paloodan ( Persian: پالودن) which means to refine. Faloodeh is an Arabicized form of paloodeh that appeared after the Arab conquest of Iran, due to a lack of the phoneme /p/ in Standard Arabic. [8] [9] [10] In Arab medieval sources, it was known as Faloothaj ( Arabic: فَالُوذَج, romanized: Fālūḏaǧ) for example in Al-Muḥkam wa-al-muḥīt al-aʻẓam. [11]
In the 16th to 18th centuries, the Indo-Persian Mughal kings who ruled South Asia created a cold dessert beverage called falooda, which is a derivative of faloodeh [ citation needed. Moreover, the Yunnanese desert Paoluda (泡鲁达) is also a derivative of the dessert. [12]
Preparation
A thin batter of starch (from potatoes, arrowroot, maize, or rice) is cooked, then pressed through a sieve producing delicate strings similar to cellophane noodles, that are then chilled in ice water. [3] [4] Afterwards, they are combined with the syrup mixture and rapidly cooled until the syrup is at least half-frozen.
Yazdi Faloodeh
Faloodeh Yazdi, which is also known by the traditional name of Maqutek in Yazd province, is a cool drink and tourists are interested in trying it. In addition, people who have tried Faloodeh Shirazi and Kermani, tend to try this delicious traditional food of Yazd city as well. [13]
