Turkish Recipes

Turkish cuisine sits at the crossroads of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Central Asian cooking, inheriting the vast pantry of the Ottoman Empire. Kebabs charred over coals, slow-cooked lamb and eggplant dishes, and meze spreads with creamy yogurt dips represent the savory side, while the pastry kitchen produces honey-soaked baklava and syrup-drenched kadayıf. Good Turkish cooking relies on just a few key ingredients used well: quality lamb, fresh yogurt, tomato paste, and dried red pepper flakes.
