Morier, a British diplomat and author, is renowned for his insightful observations and descriptive narratives of Persian culture and society during the early 19th century. His works provide a valuable historical perspective on Persia, now modern-day Iran, during a period of significant political and social change.
In "A Persian Breakfast," Morier meticulously describes the culinary customs and morning rituals of the Persian people. The narrative offers a glimpse into the daily life and hospitality that characterized Persian society. Morier's account is not merely a description of the food but an exploration of the cultural significance and social practices surrounding the meal. He details the variety of dishes typically served, the methods of preparation, and the etiquette observed during breakfast.
The breakfast often includes a range of fresh and dried fruits, nuts, bread, cheese, and an assortment of sweet and savory dishes.

The setting is usually a richly adorned room with intricate carpets and cushions, reflecting the Persian appreciation for beauty and comfort.
Morier's narrative is enriched by his keen eye for detail and his ability to convey the sensory experiences of taste, smell, and sight.
