Post script of yesterday

Yesterday,at Iranian food shop, I bout this!


I was dying to buy entire kinds of spice there but I live with another girls at my share house, so I couldn't make something which gives off a smell....
There fore, I couldn't buy any spices....

Then I've bought this!!
This is the thing that  I've never seen!
It is Dried lemmon!!



Interesting! But the problem is I don't know how to cook them.
I asked the owner of the shop and he suggested the soup which contains a lot of spices.
It sounded really yammy but I'm under the situation that I couldn't use spice...
(recipe →  http://www.persia-trd.co.jp/r.cgi?look=15)
Then he suggested to put it in the tea!

Then I tired what he'd said as soon as I came back home.
  
 nothing happened so far.......
