IDK what people are on in this thread; rosewater is a traditional flavor (one not suited for the modern palate) but you can make it in whatever flavor you want.
Tt's basically just a giant jelly bean with no outer shell, and if you get it in a good flavor it's pretty tasty
My dad used to travel a lot in the 80's due to his job. I asked him to bring Turkish Delights if he ever came across them. I was so stoked when he opened his suitcase and handed me a fancy wooden box full of them.
This was one of the biggest disappointments of my childhood.
For the longest time I thought when people were talking about Turkish Delight, they were in fact talking about Baklava. The disappointment I felt upon first trying Turkish Delight, life just isn't fair
Do you ever have days where you keep seeing something mentioned? Today is baklava for me, it appeared in like 3 different places unrelated to each other.
I'm sorry. But yeah, I was thinking of this fudge-like thing my parents used to get that was some sweet fruit puree with walnuts or pecans. I think it was green or something (maybe pistachios??). But it appears I was incorrect and Turkish Delight is more like gelatin cubes, like a gummy candy.
