Bastani Sonnati is a rich and aromatic Persian ice cream made with saffron, rosewater, and vanilla, often enriched with cream chunks (called khameh) and sometimes pistachios. This frozen dessert has a chewy, stretchy texture thanks to salep or mastic, ingredients traditionally used to thicken and bind. It originated in Tehran and Yazd, and is often sandwiched between thin wafers or served alongside faloodeh (Persian rice noodle sorbet). Bastani Sonnati is a beloved treat during hot Iranian summers and festive gatherings.
