When our mother, Aghdas Zoka-Bina, returned to the U.S. from Azerbaijan,Iran in 1995, she brought with her a bag of black pepper, along with dried lemon, rose petals, sumaq, barberries, plums, saffron, and garlic marinated in vinegar for 35 years. "Why bring black pepper when it is so easily available here?" we asked. Mom sprinkled a pinch on our fingers and told us to taste it. The flavor exploded in our mouths. Our mother just smiled and nodded.
