In Zoroastrian worship, one does not "serve a meal" to Ahura Mazda, a purely spiritual being: before the sacred fire, an offering table called myazd (fruits, bread, milk, flowers) is consecrated while the priest recites the Yasna. The meal is not divided into starter-main-dessert but is ordered around purity: a liquid libation (zaothra) poured toward water, a consecrated round bread (drôn), fruits of creation, all blessed by the fire. What the faithful prepare for the god, they then share among themselves as sanctified food.

The cuisine of the Mazdean offering does not seek richness but ritual purity. Pure water, fresh milk (symbol of creation), clarified butter (gôshudô), and the light of the sacred fire are the true "seasonings" — each food must be clean, intact, without stain, in the image of the luminous world that Ahura Mazda fashioned.
