Homemade Tarhana (Homemade Tarhana)
Hello Dear Friends,
This recipe has been waiting to be shared with you for a long time. I went to Akyaka twice this summer. My first visit was the beginning of April, but my second visit was at the beginning of June and I had the opportunity to try many recipes by preparing them myself. My favorite of these dried tomato appetizer, yogurt Game and that I collected and built with my own hands rock pickle it happened. Moreover Silcan I also met and cooked different herbs such as
My journey, which was based in Akyaka for 1 week, started from Marmaris Turunç and continued until Antalya Kaş. When going from one place to another tarhana We even did it :) Yes, I'm not kidding, thanks to the weather, which is almost zero humidity compared to Istanbul and is very hot even in June, in a total of 5-6 days without getting too tired. tarhana we prepared.
Everyone's a tarhana It has adhesion. Some people add chickpeas after boiling the pepper and tomato together. Some tarhana He adds a herb called grass weed, which the people of Istanbul do not know much about. Some make it with chickpeas, some make the dough by itself. This is a very tasty dish that I prepared with my aunt and does not require too many ingredients. tarhana recipe. We add 1 piece of bread dough to speed up the process. Bread dough is already sold in bakeries, but those who say I can't find it can add 1 pack of fresh yeast.
You can even add mint, parsley, green pepper to your taste. This was the first experiment I've personally been in, and I'm planning to try different recipes next year.
The important thing is to remove the tarhana after it is dried well, otherwise it will mold. If you are not sure how to dry it this season, you can jar it after drying it in the oven you have brought to 70-80 degrees. You can also store them in cloth bags, if desired.
Note: The greater the amount of pepper, the darker the color will be. I'm ready tarhana I also roast a little tomato paste first to give it extra flavor while cooking. For this reason, we kept the amount of pepper low so that it does not get darker.
Love…

Hello there. I ordered tarhana a month ago. Since I did not receive it, it was left in a plastic bag during this time. When I received it, I wanted to put it in a cloth bag immediately, but I saw green colors in the places that touched the bag. I think it's moldy. what can I do?
If you remove the mold and dry it a little in the oven, there will be no problem. I think the senders packed it before it was completely dried.
hello, how many jars do you get from this tarhana amount?
It makes an average of 2 jars.
