  • EAT STREETS Fee (And More Baklava) Appear, Is to Let the Dor Cafe Decorated with Carpets, Turkish Flags First Sip “Float on the Tongue” to Savour Its and a Teddy Bear

The tea, served in tulip-shaped glasses, should be piping hot, clear and bright. WThe ideal colour is described as rabbit-blood red, which makes sense when you see it. “The clarity and colour are most import- ant,” Gonca Karakoc explains as we huddle under the brick arch of a 16th-century cara- vanserai. “If it’s cloudy it has been too long on the stove and will have a bitter aftertaste.” Kursunlu Han is one of hundreds of cara- vanserais (hans) still found around Istanbul, if you know where to look. Thanks to Karakoc, our guide on a Culinary Backstreets tour of the food-obsessed Turkish capital, we do. Hamburg-born and Istanbul-raised — “I see the city like you do, as an outsider, but I can explain it as an insider” — she is both gastro- nome and cultural interpreter on a day-long binge spanning both shores of the Bosphorus. We meet in Karakoy beneath the Roman- esque Galata Tower on a chilly Saturday morning. With her fine features, gamine-cut red hair and theatrical personality, Karakoc reminds me of Shirley MacLaine. “You will see!” she cries as we set off through the alleyways of Turkey’s biggest hardware market, Persembe Pazari. “There will be no elegant restaurants. We will be eat- ing very simple local foods. We want you to have a real, personal experience.” After our quick “commuter breakfast” at Kursunlu Han of tea and simit, the chewy Turkish bagels glazed with grape molasses much needed pick-me-up, Turkish coffee, and and crusted in sesame seeds, we head to the more insights into local lore.

  • Turkish Mediterranean Breakfast
    Turkish & Mediterranean Breakfast ● Feta Cheese ● Cut cheese into cubes. Pour olive oil lightly over cheese. ● Green and Black Olives ● Season olive oil with thyme and ground red pepper, pour it over olives. ● Tomatoes, cucumbers and green bell peppers ● Chop tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. Either place them on a plate side by side, or mix them in a bowl with olive oil, lemon and salt to make a salad. You can throw in a few olives to decorate. ● Eggs ● Either scrambled or boiled eggs. You can sprinkle a little black pepper over eggs. ● Honey ● Serve with clotted cream (kaymak) if available. Or butter. ● Fresh Bread (White) ● If fresh bread is not available, bread needs to be toasted. ● Olive Oil ● Can be served in a small bowl to dip bread in. ● Turkish Sausage ● Slice the sausage (into round pieces). Fry them in very little vegetable oil. They easily get cold, so do this last. Deep Fried Cheese Rolls (Cigarette Borek) These long, thin boreks, called cigarette boreks, are made frequently in Turkish households or served at the restaurants as hot appetizers. Cut 8 triangles out of one round Turkish phyllo dough (yufka). Stores have started selling already cut versions of triangle shaped yufkas and you can find these packages at International Foods Store across from the Italian Restaurant Orzo. If you will try to cut a full yufka into triangles and it has been frozen and thawed, beware that it might break on you, and you might not be able to get your full 8 triangles. To make the borek, spread about 1.5 tablespoon of feta cheese/parsley filling (per triangle) along the long edge in a thin, long line, leaving 1/2 inch or so border on the bottom and on the edges.
