the heart of anatolia (içel 2)
TRANSCRIPT
Cezerye is a semi-gelatinous
Turkish confectionary made from carrot, fig or date purée, packed with nuts or pistachios
and sprinkled with shredded coconut. Cut into roughly 1" x 2"
rectangular chips and served at special occasions, it is
somewhat akin to Turkish Delights and
the Chinese walnut candy known as hetao tang. It is traditionally
believed to be an
aphrodisiac.
