- Positive attribute for food.
The Persian phrase تازه پز (tāzeh paz) is a descriptive adjective that literally translates to 'freshly cooked' or 'recently prepared'. It's used to emphasize that a food item is not old or reheated, but has just been made. This term is very common in everyday Persian conversation, especially when discussing food. You'll hear it in homes, restaurants, cafes, and even when people are talking about homemade meals they've brought to work or shared with friends. It conveys a sense of quality, freshness, and immediate enjoyment. Think of it as the culinary equivalent of something being 'brand new' or 'just out of the oven'. It's a positive attribute that signals deliciousness and care in preparation. For example, when you order a dish at a restaurant, you might hope it's tāzeh paz. If you're at a friend's house and they offer you something they just made, they might proudly say it's tāzeh paz. It highlights the immediate appeal and superior taste that comes with food prepared right before serving. This is particularly important for dishes that are best enjoyed hot and fresh, like bread, pastries, fried items, or certain types of stews. The opposite would be something that's been sitting for a while or has been reheated, which generally doesn't have the same appeal. The word 'paz' (پز) itself comes from the verb 'pukhtan' (پختن), meaning 'to cook', so 'tāzeh paz' is literally 'freshly cooked'. This makes the meaning very direct and easy to understand once you break it down. It’s a versatile term that adds a touch of authenticity and highlights the immediate appeal of food.
- Literal Breakdown
- 'Tāzeh' (تازه) means 'fresh' or 'new'. 'Paz' (پز) is a suffix derived from the verb 'pukhtan' (پختن), meaning 'to cook', indicating something that has been cooked.
- Common Situations
- You'll hear this when someone is bragging about their cooking, when ordering food to ensure it's not old, or when describing baked goods that are still warm from the oven.
این نان بربری تازه پز است و هنوز گرم است.
کبابها خیلی خوشمزه بودند، چون تازه پز بودند.
- Nuance
- It implies a higher quality and better taste compared to food that is not freshly prepared.
- Food Types
- Especially relevant for baked goods, fried items, and dishes that degrade quickly in quality once cooked.
Using تازه پز (tāzeh paz) in sentences is straightforward, as it functions as an adjective modifying a noun, typically a food item. It usually follows the noun it describes, or it can be part of a predicate nominative construction. The key is to place it in a context where the freshness of the food is relevant or being emphasized. For instance, when complimenting a meal, you might say, 'This ghormeh sabzi is freshly cooked!' which in Persian would be 'این قورمه سبزی تازه پز است.' (In qhormeh sabzi tāzeh paz ast.). You can also use it to ask about the freshness of food, like 'Is this bread freshly baked?' which translates to 'این نان تازه پز است؟' (In nan tāzeh paz ast?). In informal settings, the 'ast' (است - is) might be dropped for brevity: 'نان تازه پز.' (Nan tāzeh paz.). When describing multiple items, the adjective still applies to each item implicitly if used in a general statement about a meal. For example, if a restaurant menu highlights 'dishes prepared fresh daily', it implies many items are tāzeh paz. The word order is flexible but generally, it modifies the noun directly or is used after the verb 'to be'. Consider a scenario where you're at a bakery: 'I want to buy some freshly baked cookies.' In Persian, this could be 'من میخواهم چند تا شیرینی تازه پز بخرم.' (Man mikhāham chand tā shirini tāzeh paz bekharam.). The emphasis is on the immediate appeal and quality that comes with recent preparation. It's a term that evokes a sensory experience – the warmth, the aroma, and the superior taste of food made just for you. When discussing recipes or cooking, you might use it to describe the ideal state of a dish: 'Pizza is best when it's freshly cooked.' 'پیتزا وقتی تازه پز باشد، بهترین است.' (Pizza vaghti tāzeh paz bāshad, behtarin ast.). This highlights its role in enhancing the culinary experience. The versatility of tāzeh paz allows it to be integrated into various sentence structures, making it a valuable adjective for any Persian language learner interested in food vocabulary.
- Placement
- Typically follows the noun it modifies, or appears after the verb 'to be' (است).
این کیک تازه پز است و هنوز گرم است.
- Question Form
- To ask if something is freshly cooked, add a question mark: این غذا تازه پز است؟ (In ghazā tāzeh paz ast? - Is this food freshly cooked?).
لطفاً بفرمایید این کلوچهها تازه پز هستند؟
- Emphasis
- Placing it after the noun emphasizes the freshness: 'من یک همبرگر تازه پز میخواهم.' (Man yek hamburger tāzeh paz mikhāham. - I want a freshly cooked hamburger.)
You will encounter تازه پز (tāzeh paz) most frequently in contexts related to food consumption and preparation. Imagine yourself in various scenarios in Iran or in Persian-speaking communities abroad:
- At a Bakery (نانوایی - nānoāyi)
- When you enter a bakery, especially in the morning, the air is filled with the aroma of freshly baked bread. The baker might proudly announce, 'نان سنگک تازه پز!' (Nan sangak tāzeh paz! - Freshly baked Sangak bread!). Or you might ask, 'نان بربری تازه پز دارید؟' (Nan barbari tāzeh paz dārid? - Do you have freshly baked Barbari bread?). This applies to pastries, cookies, and other baked goods as well.
- In Restaurants and Cafes (رستوران و کافه - resturān o kāfeh)
- When ordering a dish, especially one that is best served hot and fresh like kebabs, pizza, or fried items, you might hear the waiter say, 'غذای شما تازه پز است.' (Ghazāye shomā tāzeh paz ast. - Your food is freshly prepared.) or you might ask to ensure quality: 'این ماهی تازه پز است؟' (In māhi tāzeh paz ast? - Is this fish freshly cooked?).
- At Home (در خانه - dar khāneh)
- When someone has cooked a meal and is serving it, they might proudly state, 'این قیمه تازه پز است، نوش جان!' (In qeymeh tāzeh paz ast, noosh-e jān! - This Ghormeh Sabzi is freshly cooked, enjoy!). It's a way to highlight the effort and ensure the guest enjoys the best possible flavor.
- Food Markets and Street Food Vendors
- Vendors selling items like samosas, falafel, or freshly made sandwiches will often advertise them as tāzeh paz to attract customers. You might see signs saying 'سمبوسه تازه پز' (Sambuseh tāzeh paz - Freshly made Samosas).
- Informal Conversations
- When friends discuss what they ate, they might say, 'دیشب رفتیم رستوران، همه چیز تازه پز بود.' (Dis hab raftim resturān, hame chiz tāzeh paz bud. - Last night we went to a restaurant, everything was freshly prepared.)
در نانوایی گفت: 'نان سنگک تازه پز!'
While تازه پز (tāzeh paz) is a relatively simple adjective, learners might make a few common mistakes, often related to its application or grammatical integration. One frequent error is using it for things that are not food or not cooked. For example, saying 'کتاب تازه پز' (ketāb tāzeh paz - freshly cooked book) would be nonsensical. The word 'paz' (پز) specifically relates to cooking, so its application is limited to prepared food items. Another mistake is misplacing it grammatically. While it often follows the noun, learners might try to place it before the noun as they might in English with some adjectives. In Persian, adjectives generally follow the noun they modify. So, saying 'تازه پز نان' (tāzeh paz nan) is incorrect; it should be 'نان تازه پز' (nan tāzeh paz).
- Misapplication
- Using 'tāzeh paz' for non-food items or for food that is not cooked (e.g., fresh fruit, raw vegetables). It strictly means 'freshly cooked'.
- Incorrect Word Order
- Placing 'tāzeh paz' before the noun it modifies. The correct order is 'noun + tāzeh paz'. Example: 'نان تازه پز' (nan tāzeh paz) is correct, not 'تازه پز نان' (tāzeh paz nan).
Incorrect: تازه پز غذا
Correct: غذا تازه پز
- Overuse
- Sometimes learners might use it too frequently for items that don't necessarily need the emphasis on freshness, like a pre-packaged snack. It's best reserved for situations where the cooking process is recent and relevant.
- Grammatical Agreement (Less Common)
- While 'tāzeh paz' is generally invariable, in very formal or specific contexts, learners might mistakenly try to add plural markers or other agreement forms that are not applicable to this compound adjective.
While تازه پز (tāzeh paz) is specific and widely used for 'freshly cooked', there are other words and phrases that convey related meanings of freshness or recentness, though they might not be direct synonyms.
- تازه (tāzeh)
- Meaning: Fresh, new.
Comparison: This is a more general term for freshness. While 'tāzeh paz' specifically means freshly cooked, 'tāzeh' can refer to anything new or fresh, like 'نان تازه' (nan tāzeh - fresh bread, which could be recently baked or just bought), 'میوه تازه' (miveh tāzeh - fresh fruit), or 'هوای تازه' (havāye tāzeh - fresh air). You can use 'tāzeh' in conjunction with 'paz' to form 'tāzeh paz', reinforcing the 'fresh' aspect of the cooking.
- نوپز (nopaz)
- Meaning: Newly cooked.
Comparison: This is a very close synonym to 'tāzeh paz' and is often used interchangeably. 'No' (نو) means 'new'. So, 'nopaz' also means 'newly cooked'. It carries the same emphasis on recent preparation. Some might find 'nopaz' slightly more formal or literary than 'tāzeh paz', but in everyday speech, they are largely equivalent.
- داغ (dāgh)
- Meaning: Hot (temperature-wise).
Comparison: 'Dāgh' refers to the temperature of the food. Food that is 'tāzeh paz' is usually also 'dāgh', but not always. You can have hot food that was reheated ('dāgh'), and you can have freshly cooked food that has cooled down slightly ('tāzeh paz' but not 'dāgh'). It's often used together: 'غذا تازه پز و داغ است.' (Ghazā tāzeh paz va dāgh ast. - The food is freshly cooked and hot.).
- آماده (āmādeh)
- Meaning: Ready, prepared.
Comparison: 'Āmādeh' is a general term for readiness. Food can be 'āmādeh' without being 'tāzeh paz' (e.g., pre-packaged meals). However, 'tāzeh paz' food is inherently 'āmādeh' for consumption. It's less specific about the cooking time.
این نان هم تازه است و هم تازه پز.
- پخته (pokhteh)
- Meaning: Cooked.
Comparison: This is the most basic term for cooked. 'Pokhteh' simply means 'cooked', regardless of when it was cooked. 'Tāzeh paz' implies 'pokhteh' but adds the crucial element of recent cooking. You could have 'نان پخته' (nan pokhteh - cooked bread) that is a day old, but 'نان تازه پز' (nan tāzeh paz) specifically means it came out of the oven recently.

هیچ چیز به اندازه غذای تازه پز خانگی لذتبخش نیست.
Se confunde a menudo con
'Tāzeh' means 'fresh' generally. 'Tāzeh paz' specifically means 'freshly cooked'. For example, 'میوه تازه' (fresh fruit) is not 'tāzeh paz', but 'نان تازه پز' (freshly baked bread) is.
'Dāgh' means 'hot' (temperature). Food can be 'dāgh' (hot) but not 'tāzeh paz' (reheated), or 'tāzeh paz' but not 'dāgh' (cooled down). They are often used together.
'Pokhteh' simply means 'cooked'. 'Tāzeh paz' implies 'pokhteh' but emphasizes the recency of cooking.
Fácil de confundir
Both words start with 'tāzeh' and relate to freshness.
'Tāzeh' is a general adjective for 'fresh'. It can apply to fruits, vegetables, air, or even news. 'Tāzeh paz' is a compound adjective specifically meaning 'freshly cooked' or 'recently prepared', applying only to food that has undergone a cooking process.
میوه تازه (fresh fruit) vs. نان تازه پز (freshly baked bread).
Freshly cooked food is often hot, so the concepts are related.
'Tāzeh paz' refers to the state of being recently cooked, emphasizing the preparation time and quality. 'Dāgh' refers solely to the temperature of the food. You can have 'dāgh' food that was reheated (not 'tāzeh paz'), and you can have 'tāzeh paz' food that has cooled down (not 'dāgh').
این غذا داغ است اما تازه پز نیست (This food is hot but not freshly cooked - it's reheated). این کیک تازه پز است اما کمی سرد شده (This cake is freshly baked but has cooled down a bit).
Both relate to the state of being cooked.
'Pokhteh' is a basic adjective meaning 'cooked'. It doesn't specify when the cooking occurred. 'Tāzeh paz' is more specific, meaning 'freshly cooked' or 'recently prepared', highlighting the immediacy of the cooking process and implying a higher quality.
این مرغ پخته است (This chicken is cooked - it could be old or fresh). این مرغ تازه پز است (This chicken is freshly cooked).
It's a very close synonym.
'Nopaz' is virtually identical in meaning to 'tāzeh paz', both meaning 'newly cooked' or 'freshly prepared'. 'No' means 'new' and 'paz' is the cooking suffix. While interchangeable in most contexts, 'tāzeh paz' might be slightly more common in everyday speech.
این کلوچهها نوپز هستند. / این کلوچهها تازه پز هستند.
It's the direct opposite concept.
'Māndeh' means 'stale', 'leftover', or 'old'. It is the antonym of 'tāzeh paz'. 'Tāzeh paz' implies freshness and recent preparation, while 'māndeh' implies the opposite.
غذای تازه پز بهتر از غذای مانده است.

The term is a compound adjective formed from two Persian words. 'Tāzeh' (تازه) means 'fresh' or 'new', and 'paz' (پز) is a suffix derived from the verb 'pukhtan' (پختن), meaning 'to cook'. Thus, 'tāzeh paz' literally translates to 'freshly cooked'.
Significado original: Freshly cooked.
Indo-Iranian (Persian)Contexto cultural
This term is universally positive when referring to food and does not carry any negative connotations.
In English-speaking cultures, we often use phrases like 'freshly baked', 'hot off the press' (for news, but can be metaphorically applied), or 'made to order' to convey a similar sense of immediacy and quality.

Preguntas frecuentes
10 preguntas'Tāzeh paz' is a compound Persian adjective. 'Tāzeh' (تازه) means 'fresh' or 'new', and 'paz' (پز) is a suffix derived from the verb 'pukhtan' (پختن), meaning 'to cook'. So, literally, it means 'freshly cooked' or 'newly cooked'.
No, 'tāzeh paz' is exclusively used for food items that have been cooked or prepared recently. The suffix 'paz' is directly related to the act of cooking.
Not necessarily. 'Tāzeh paz' emphasizes that the food was recently cooked, implying freshness and quality. While many freshly cooked items are hot ('dāgh'), a 'tāzeh paz' dish might have cooled down slightly. The primary meaning is about the recency of preparation, not just the temperature.
A very close synonym is 'nopaz' (نوپز), which also means 'newly cooked'. Both are widely understood and used interchangeably in many contexts.
It typically functions as an adjective following the noun it describes. For example: 'نان تازه پز' (nan tāzeh paz - freshly baked bread). It can also be used after the verb 'to be': 'این غذا تازه پز است' (in ghazā tāzeh paz ast - this food is freshly cooked).
Yes. 'Tāzeh' (تازه) means 'fresh' in a general sense and can apply to many things (fresh fruit, fresh air, fresh news). 'Tāzeh paz' is specific to food that has been recently cooked.
People use it to emphasize the quality and appeal of food that has just been made, such as when ordering at a restaurant, describing baked goods, or praising a home-cooked meal.
No, the adjective 'tāzeh paz' itself does not change. Grammatical agreement for plurality is handled by the noun and the verb.
The opposite would be terms like 'māndeh' (مانده - stale, leftover) or 'garm shodeh' (گرم شده - reheated).
'Tāzeh paz' is used in both formal and informal contexts, but it is most common in everyday conversation, especially when discussing food. Its usage is generally neutral.
