About this dish
A Persian, Persian roll or Pershing is a deep fried sweet roll with a spiral shape similar to a cinnamon bun. It may be covered with a sugar glaze, iced or frosted, or sprinkled with sugar or cinnamon sugar. The roll is especially popular around Thunder Bay, Ontario. Despite its name, it is unrelated to the Persian empire.
