Persian is one of many types of Middle Eastern food. The differences between Persian Food and, say, Iraqi or Levantine Arab food are slight, but noticeable. There is a different spice pallet, focusing on saffron over cumin and an increased use of fruits for flavoring. Persian food also has a large number of stews involving aubergines and stewed greens, whereas most Arab stews use meat and beans as primary ingredients. Persian cuisine also has fewer mezzede (appetizers-esque foods) than Arab, Israeli, and Greek cuisine.
