It dates back to hundreds of years ago when Iranians made this food called Dizi. The reason for such naming is that people traditionally cooked and served it in small stone dishes called Dizi. It’s actually the name of the container. Iranian traditional restaurants still use these stone dishes for this food.

If we want to think about the most traditional Iranian food or know the authentic taste of Iran according to tourists' taste, the first option that comes to mind is Abgousht. The food that has been imprinted in our memories since childhood in family gatherings with its traditional customs is still considered one of the popular dishes to touch those memories again in family weekend gatherings.


This traditional food is so intertwined with our lives that we may never think about when its history goes back and whether it has changed during this past time or not. Has the status of this food changed among people over time? And another question is, is Abgousht just a common style we eat or does it have its own types? In this article, we will address all these issues and try to provide comprehensive and useful information about traditional and authentic Iranian food

History of broth
The exact presence of Abgousht among Iranians is not exactly known, but the oldest document found that mentions this dish dates back to around the 8th century. Of course, in the old texts, this dish is not mentioned by the name Abgousht, and it is mostly called "Shorbaj". Also, much earlier than this, this food was common among the people as pea water or ice cream. Therefore, cooking food with broth content goes back years ago.

Of course, the name Yakhni is still heard among some cities like Kazeroon and Shiraz, which is a food like Abgousht. But in general, broth is a food that is common in almost all of Iran, and it is currently the food of the middle class of society. In the past, this dish was also known as party food and served as a hearty dish at parties.

Iranians also call this traditional Persian dish Abgoosht, which literally means “meat broth”. This highcalorie food, which is a good source of protein, is more common and preferred in winter. It would be originally made with lamb and chickpeas only before tomatoes and potatoes were introduced to Iranian food dishes and developed the recipe.
