"In accordance with the lunar calendar, Ramadan could start as early as Tuesday this year, which falls well before the switch to daylight saving time on March 8 in the United States. This means that iftar will begin around 5:30 p.m. for most of the country for nearly three weeks, leaving a short window after work to get a comforting, nourishing meal on the table."
"To honor beloved Ramadan customs while accommodating a contemporary schedule, home in on food that feels familiar and brings joy, then follow these three tips for creating iftars that suit your lifestyle. Making something you know how to execute quickly while adjusting the flavors to spark nostalgia is more manageable than toiling over a dish your grandmother spent years perfecting."
Ramadan fasting timing can fall before daylight saving, causing iftar to start around 5:30 p.m. for many, leaving limited time after work to prepare meals. Elaborate traditional preparations may not fit contemporary schedules, but flavor need not be sacrificed. Streamlining techniques and mixing ingredients or seasonings from different cuisines can reduce time and coordination while evoking nostalgic tastes. Focus on foods that feel familiar and bring joy, choose dishes that are quick to execute, and adjust seasonings to replicate cherished flavors. Stocking pantry-friendly staples such as legumes supports fast, nourishing iftar options without daily grocery trips.
