Talk:Ghormeh sabzi

Chicken

Upon visiting Iranian homes, I've often come across this dish with chicken instead of veal. It's delicious! --90.235.9.56 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 13:53, 18 November 2008 (UTC).

Wrong info

I'm sorry, but the author seems to be Tabrizi, because ghormeh sabzi is not a Tabrizi dish and there ist no "traditional Tabrizi" ghormeh sabzi.

The author also made a crucial mistake in the spelling (both Persian and English), showing his/her lack of genuine information about that dish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.12.87.9 (talk) 20:09, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Etimology

Etimologically speaking, what about "Kıyma" and "Kavurma"?? as قيمه and قورمه ?? --85.105.212.143 (talk) 09:39, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

"Qormeh" sabzi???

What a bizarre spelling, even more so considering the article doesn't mention ghormeh sabsi, which is the more common (or at least the "gh" spelling). No one in the largest Persian community outside of Iran (Southern California area) spells it that way. In fact, 5 of the 6 references that were in the article use that spelling. I've added a NY Times article that uses gormeh (which is not common either), but also noted that all the major Persian restaurants in LA use "ghormeh" or "ghorme". I don't want to have you think I'm speaking without sources so here's a motherload (I'm not cherry picking, these are some of the most famous Persian restaurants that have a website):

• Westwood, Los Angeles examples: [1],[2],[3]
• Glendale, CA example: [4]
• Orange County, CA examples: [5], [6]
• San Diego, CA example: [7]

And it's not just LA, it's everywhere! Here are some other Persian restaurants in cities I know with significant communities:

• New York City examples: [8] (this is even a Michelin Starred restaurant!), [9]
• Washington, DC example: [10]
• Chicago, IL example: [11]
• Houston, TX example: [12]
• Boston, MA example: [13]
• Miami, FL example: [14]
• Seattle, WA example: [15]
• Minneapolis, MN(!?) examples: [16][17]

How about worldwide?

• London examples: [18], [19] (this one omits the "h" like the NYT), [20]
• Manchester example: [21]
• Glasgow example: [22]
• Singapore example: [23]
• Sydney example: [24]
• Melbourne example: [25]
• Auckland example: [26]

So, in closing --this is the most culturally insensitive combination misspelling/omission I think I've seen. Please find me places that use this "q" spelling. I strongly recommend moving the main article to the common spelling. ...now who's hungry :-) --Bobak (talk) 23:43, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

If I don't hear any complaints in the next few days, I'll make the movie and keep the redirect from this page. --Bobak (talk) 23:43, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

I think it was spelled that way because in Farsi (to an American ear) "Q" and "Gh" sound similar. Personally I always thought it was "gourmet sabzi" growing up. Cammy169 (talk) 17:31, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

That's odd, it sounds more like "gore" not "qore". --Bobak (talk) 15:35, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Etymology of Ghormeh

Ghormeh doesn't mean stew. It means "to roast". Plus it's not Persian but Turkish.Taddah (talk) 10:45, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
