Following in the boom of Persian/Middle Eastern and North African food and flavours in Australia, I'm seeing them start to appear in the US. Cousous has been popular for some time, and pomegrates have been hugely popular for the past 2 years. However, now you can buy preserved lemons at Whole Foods, and at least 2 recipes in the latest Cooking Light magazine call for pomegranate molasses. Next I'm expecting fiery harissa paste, dukkah and tagine-everything, that is widely available in Australia.For more food trends, see my article 2006 US Food Trends on Squidoo.
