Zoolbia and Bamieh are traditional Persian pastries soaked in a fragrant rosewater-saffron syrup, typically enjoyed during Ramadan and festive occasions. Zoolbia is a lacy, spiral-shaped deep-fried sweet made from a yogurt and starch batter, while Bamieh consists of small, ridged dough pieces, similar to churros but shorter and syrup-soaked. These golden treats are believed to have originated from Tehran and central Iran, though they are loved nationwide for their crispy, juicy texture and floral sweetness. They are often served alongside tea for a perfect contrast of flavors.
