Acuka, the walnut-and-pepper paste of Hatay cuisine, is made with pomegranate molasses and olive oil. It's a spicy breakfast paste served spread on bread or as a side meze.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Chop the walnuts

5 min

Chop the walnut kernels coarsely with a knife or food processor; do not grind them into a powder.

2

Mix the ingredients

8 min

In a bowl, knead the chopped walnuts thoroughly with pepper paste, pomegranate molasses, olive oil, and red pepper flakes.

3

Rest and serve

30 min

Rest the paste in the refrigerator for at least half an hour, then serve with bread slices.

Reminder

Important: You can thicken or thin the paste's consistency by adjusting the ratio of walnuts and pepper paste. Allergen: contains walnut (nuts); those with a nut allergy should be careful. Note: The spiciness level varies with the amount of red pepper flakes and can be reduced to taste.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you let the acuka rest in the fridge overnight, the ingredients meld together and the flavor noticeably improves.
