  • Biting Into Time Lora Sariaslan You Are Really Hungry, You Do Not Have
    Biting into Time Lora Sariaslan You are really hungry, you do not have the energy or the means to go grocery shopping, and there isn’t anything in your fridge, what is the last resort? Menemen: a traditional Turkish dish made from eggs, tomato, and green peppers and commonly served with bread. Due to the list of ingredients, it is one of the cheapest dishes in Turkish cuisine, especially made by students in Turkey. Menemen, however, represents much more to the artist Suat Ogut, as in his words, “Anyone who knows me, knows that I love making menemen”. This is the statement that has led to the exhibition The Future of the Me-Mory-nemen, the love for a dish that represents more than the combination of eggs, tomatoes, pepper (and according to the cook/artist, a pinch of white feta cheese). But what does menemen really signify? It can be seen as the cozy, heart and body warming menu item that brings everyone together. Menemen can be seen as the staple single guy’s food, even if you do not have anything in your fridge, you can still concoct one… and it is also definitely a working class dish… The location of the installation in the Jordaan district of Amsterdam, historically a working class neighborhood also fits in perfectly with the working class origins of menemen. Ogut’s serendipitous decision of selecting a spot that has no pre-life in art is also noteworthy. Just as the combination of the ingredients leads to a completely new taste hence a new experience, what Ogut is putting his bite or foot into with The Future of the Me-Mory- nemen is a space of encounters.

  • 3. Ottoman Contributions to the World.Pdf
    Ottoman Contributions to the World Turkey is also the home of many other cultivated plants, such as chickpeas, lentils, apricots, almonds, figs, hazelnuts, cherries and sour cherries. Their origin is recorded in the Latin names for some of these species, such as Ficus caria, meaning "fig of Caria". Caria was an archaic civilization of Anatolia in the southern Aegean region. Similarly the cherry's scientific name Cerasus comes from the ancient name of its place of origin, today the province of Giresun on Turkey's Black Sea coast. Off the large number of ornamental flowers cultivated from Turkish wild forms, we can cite the tulip, crocus, snowdrop, lily and fritillary. TULIPS Although tulips are associated with Holland, both the flower and its name originated in the lâleh) as it is also called in Turkey, is a ,ﻩلال Persian empire. The tulip, or lale (from Persian flower indigenous to Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan and other parts of Central Asia. Although, it is unclear who first brought the flower to northwest Europe, it is the Turks who made tulip known in Europe. The most widely accepted story is that of Oghier Ghislain de Busbecq, ambassador from Ferdinand I to Suleyman the Magnificent of the Ottoman Empire in 1554. He remarks in a letter upon seeing "an abundance of flowers everywhere; Narcissus, hyacinths, and those which in Turkish Lale, much to our astonishment, because it was almost midwinter, a season unfriendly to flowers" (see Busbecq, qtd. in Blunt, 7). In Persian Literature (classic and modern) special attention has been given to these two flowers, in specific likening the beloved eyes to Narges and a glass of wine to Laleh.

    Turkish Cuisine Seminar contribution to the module "Terrestrial Ecosystems" (2101-230) Institute of Botany (210a) · University of Hohenheim · Stuttgart presented by Tobias Baumgartner on January 24, 2019 Overview Introduction and history of Turkish cuisine Main ingredients of Turkish cuisine Regional distinctions Typical dishes and beverages 19.02 Introduction and history of Turkish cuisine Turkey possesses one of the broadest, most outstanding food cultures in the world. It is influenced by the mainly Arabic and Asian heritage of the Turkish tribes, but also from the Western culture. The Ottoman Empire played a major role in the great diversity of it‘s culture. A depiction of the Ottoman Empire and its dependencies in 1683, with indication of territory held prior to that date [1]. 19.03 At the beginning, the tribal Turks from Central Asia lived as nomads via animal husbandry, so naturally their food consisted of a variety of milk products, wheat flour baked goods and Kebab (grilled meat). A Yörük shepherd in Ala Dağlar, Taurus Mountains, Turkey [2]. 19.04 As time progressed and the tribes grew and interacted more with each other, they settled more and more of Anatolia and big trad lines coming from the West and East were formed, e.g. the famous Silk Road spanning up to East Asia. From there, the influence of other cultures grew, settlements were created and they began practicing agriculture in a broader way. Rough outline of a few routes of the Silk Road [3]. 19.05 With the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the influence of Western culture, especially European culture, grew in the now newly formed Republic of Turkey, which was eager to accept this change in order to strengthen the relationship with their new allies.
