Taste of Persia: How to Marinate Shishlik and Saffron wings + Arak Cheers!

Persian-style lamb shashlik is a dish featuring marinated rack of lamb and grilled. The marinade typically includes onion, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and saffron. This dish is often served with rice, grilled vegetables, or flatbread.
Arak Saggi is a traditional Persian alcoholic beverage made from distilled grapes or dates.
Shishlik
Ingredients:
* 1 kg (2.2 lbs) rack of lamb
* 2 large onions, sliced
* 1/4 cup olive oil
* 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
* 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
Suggestions:
- Add salt before grilling.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- Remove the marinated lamb ribs from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before grilling to bring them to room temperature.
Chicken Wings
Ingredients :
* 1 kg (2.2 lbs) chicken wings
* 1 large onion
* Saffron water
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* Salt, to taste
* Black pepper, to taste
Suggestion:
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the wings marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably longer (up to overnight).
Saffron
* Use a small pinch of saffron threads (about 10-15 threads) for most recipes.
* Grind the threads into a fine powder to release more flavor and color.
* Transfer the ground saffron to a small bowl or cup
* Add 2 tablespoons of hot (but not boiling) water to the saffron.
* Let it soak for at least 10-15 minutes. This helps to release the full flavor and color of the saffron.
