In ancient Persia, kitchens were an essential part of everyday life. While glass-front cabinet drawers were not used during this time, Persian kitchens were equipped with various storage options. Persians used wooden cupboards, shelves, and clay pots to store their cooking utensils, pottery, and food items. The kitchen was often located near the courtyard or garden, allowing easy access to fresh ingredients. Persian kitchens had a hearth for cooking, and they used a variety of cooking techniques, including grilling, baking, and stewing. The Persians had a diverse culinary tradition, with a focus on aromatic flavors and rich spices. They used ingredients such as rice, meat, fruits, vegetables, and nuts to create flavorful and elaborate dishes.
