What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was captivated by the hospitality of a local family who prepared fresh lamb dumplings called Gersh in a beautiful outdoor setting by a river. He was particularly impressed by the unique sour plum and garlic dipping sauce, which provided a sharp, salty contrast to the savory lamb filling. His favorite moment was eating the dumplings hot and fresh while surrounded by the mountains and nature of the Gash region.
