| This is the story for us to remember always. (Why Parsis are Sweet)  Parsis migrated from the ancient Persia, to the western part of India, which is now Gujarat, about 1000 years ago. I have heard a very sweet story. Many centuries ago, when Parsis arrived, they approached the king of the local land. They wanted to settle in the new place. The king was hesitant because he was not sure how his land could support more people? To stress his point, he ordered a tall cup full of milk. He showed the cup to the Parsi immigrants, stated that this cup couldn't hold anything else similarly his land couldn't hold anything more. Parsis took a handful of sugar and poured in the cup and said, just like this sugar not only got well-blended with the milk but also made the milk sweeter, we would be one of you. So Parsis adapted the Gujarati culture. They speak Gujarati, ladies wear Gujarati style saris. They follow many Gujarati customs while still retaining their own customs and individuality. For recipes click on: New veg, non-veg and sweets |  Katy Dalal is a well known Bombay caterer and prolific cookery writer. She also had a distinguished career as an archaeologist. In addition to the two shown here published in 1998 and 2003, she has published other books on cooking which I will touch on later. Jamva Chaloji is "the lusty booming call from the caterer to the guests at a Parsi Wedding, to partake of the freshly cooked, hot, fragrant dinner that awaits them!" Katy's larger than life, warm personality shines through her books, and her obvious enthusiasm for good food and cooking is engaging. -------------------------------------------------------------

Hey Nazneen, I'm Delzad Dalal, I just visited your web portal, suggested by Mr Rusi Mistry, and I can confidently say that finally there is a Parsi portal, that truly is about the religion and everything about it. Simply marvelous.
I recently graduated in Bioinformatics from Ooty, and have a year in my had till I do my masters, so till then i decided to put up a website of my own which had a little of just about everything,and also had a link for Parsees. I did plan to create something on a similar lines, and guess you wont mind if I kept a link to your web site? |

Freddie Mercury (Farrokh Bulsara) was probably the most famous Parsi of all time.
