A traditional sweet made by dipping strings of walnuts into thickened grape must and drying them, then slicing them into sausage-shaped pieces. It is a winter staple in Eastern Anatolian and Black Sea households.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Thread the walnuts

15 min

Use a needle to thread the walnut pieces onto strings about twenty centimeters long.

2

Boil the grape must

30 min

Mix the flour with a little cold grape must until smooth, then add it to the remaining grape must. Stir constantly and boil until thickened. Caution: Do not add the flour directly to the grape must, or it will form lumps.

3

Dip the walnut strings

10 min

Dip the threaded walnuts into the hot grape must mixture one at a time, making sure each one is coated all over.

4

Hang and dry

Hang the dipped walnut strings in a cool, dry place for a few days to dry. Dip them again if needed.

Reminder

Allergens: contains wheat (gluten) and walnuts (tree nuts). If flour is used to thicken the mixture, it also contains wheat (gluten). Important: After dipping the threaded walnuts in the grape must mixture, hang them in a cool, dry place to dry. Drying in a damp environment may lead to mold.

Tarçın yerine biraz zencefil ekledim, hoş bir fark yarattı.
