Turkish cuisine

Turkish cuisine is similar to the cuisines of the neighboring countries in the Mediterranean and the Balkans, but, nevertheless, it has its own characteristics. Primarily due to the requirements of Islam and the prohibitions on the use of certain products, pork, for example.

Halal is by no means a figure of speech, but the norm in Turkish cuisine. It is impossible to imagine a Turkish meal without bread, many varieties of it are baked, pita is widely known in our country.

Meat, especially lamb, is often cooked over an open fire or charcoal; in Turkish cuisine, the word kebab refers to meat dishes, and not only minced ones. Meze - hot and cold snacks are also traditional for Turkish cuisine.
