Turkish
Seasoning
Of all the places in the world you can travel pursuing spices,
there are few places as enjoyable as Turkey. The people, the climate, the
history and the food all come together to make this a destination not to
miss. This combination of spices has been developed over the millennia in
Izmir, which was already a thriving city on the West coast of Turkey 2000
years before the battle of Troy. A traditional and delicious blend for seasoning
meats from kabobs to roasts, lamb to beef to chicken-use about 2 tsp. per
pound. Mix 2 tsp. in 1 Cup yogurt for a sandwich/pita spread; for a tasty
vegetable dip use the same mix, but add a tsp. or two of honey as well.
Hand mixed from: flake salt, cumin, garlic, half-sharp paprika, black pepper,
Turkish oregano, sumac, cilantro. |
