What to eat in Turkey


One of the most attractive countries in Europe is Turkey, in addition to Asia since a part of the country corresponds to that continent. Today I would like to tell you about the turkish gastronomy, totally delicious and that your tasting becomes a unique adventure.

Here I leave you some of the characteristics of the Turkish food and what you should try when you visit this country. Take note:

- Thanks to belonging to two continents with gastronomies as rich as the European and the Asian, the Turkish offers fantastic contrasts and mixes in their dishes that are absolutely delicious. In a single dish you can find various traditions and different cooking styles.

- This gastronomy not only carries the country's own but also uses many ingredients and customs German and British, so there are dishes that are a real adventure and that you will not be able to try anywhere else other than here.

- Among his best specialties you can find him Kofte (a spicy sausage-shaped meat that is like meatballs), the Shish kebab (pieces of meat on a skewer that is grilled), Asks (it turns out to be a pizza with cheese and eggs), Dolma (they are vine leaves or vegetables that are stuffed with pine nuts and raisins) or the Lokum (a dessert that combines honey, jasmine and roses with gum arabic. Ideal for after coffee).

- As for drinks, the most traditional are the raki (anise), the fell (tea), the ayran (a drink made from yogurt) or the strong Turkish black coffee, which is the most traditional in the whole country, although if you are not very coffee I recommend that you have a softer one.
