Turkish cuisine, having a six hundred year splendid flavor inheritance, is considered as the third richest cuisine in the world. It got enriched with immigrant and minority cultures during Roman, Byzantium and Ottoman period.<\/p>\n

Turkish cuisine varies across the country. The cooking of Istanbul, Bursa, Izmir, and rest of the Aegean region inherits many elements of Ottoman court cuisine, with a lighter use of spices, a preference for rice over bulgur, koftes and a wider availability of vegetable stews (t\u00fcrl\u00fc), eggplant (patl\u0131can), stuffed dolmas and fish.<\/p>\n

The cuisine of the Black Sea Region uses fish extensively, especially the Black Sea anchovy (hamsi) and includes maize dishes.<\/p>\n

The cuisine of the southeast – Urfa, Gaziantep and Adana – is famous for its variety of kebabs, mezes and dough – based desserts such as baklava, \u015f\u00f6biyet, kaday\u0131f and k\u00fcnefe.<\/p>\n

Especially in the western parts of Turkey, where olive trees grow abundantly, olive oil is the major type of oil used for cooking.<\/p>\n

The cuisines of the Aegean, Marmara and Mediterranean regions are rich in vegetables, herbs, and fish.<\/p>\n

Central Anatolia has many famous specialties, such as ke\u015fkek, mant\u0131 (especially from Kayseri) and g\u00f6zleme.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
