Delicious Sweet Treats to Try in Turkey
(firmenpresse) - Turkey is well-known for its stunning natural beauty, bustling local markets and tourist-friendly beaches and resorts. However, few know about the country’s unique culinary heritage. From scrumptious muhallebi to delicious halva, this article highlights some of the tastiest Turkish desserts you should sample on your next getaway.
Halva
This dessert is usually recognised at the top treat in Turkey, and it’s a sweet staple all across the Middle East. Made with semolina flour and nut butters, this crumbly creation melts in your mouth within moments. Once you taste this little piece of heaven, don’t blame us if you find yourself munching on it throughout your entire holiday!
Revani
Fancy something even sweeter? Try revani – this is a delicious cake made with semolina that’s soaked in syrup. Some recipes include the addition of fragrant rose water to the mixture, which gives it a completely different aromatic dimension. While this dish is a rather unassuming speciality, it has been a firm favourite for generations and is a must-try if you’re keen to blend in with the locals.
Ayva Tatlisi
This treat can be enjoyed any time of year, but is particularly popular during winter months. It’s made with boiled quince mixed with sweetened syrup and cloves. The mixture is then gloriously stuffed with kaymak (similar to clotted cream) and walnuts. Occasionally this dish is also made with pumpkin – why not try both variations and choose your favourite?
Muhallebi
When in Turkey, you shouldn’t miss this iconic milky dessert. Made with mastic, this pudding is usually garnished with grated pistachios, giving it a beautiful crunch and pop of colour on its exterior. Muhallebi goes wonderfully well with ice cream but can also just be eaten on its own. Either way, it’s a popular choice of dessert for both locals and tourists.
Cevizli Sucuk
Don’t be fooled by its quirky name. While sucuk is the word for the traditional Turkish herb-infused savoury sausage, cevizli sucuk is an entirely different sweet treat. It’s created by dipping a string of crunchy walnuts into a grape molasses mixture. This is then hung out to dry and eventually, a gummi-like dessert is formed. With its gooey caramel-coloured exterior and crunchy core, it’s definitely something that’s worth a try.
