Cuisine

Produced without any artificial yeast or sugar, Teleme dessert is obtained by fermenting freshly milked warm goat milk with the sap of wild fig trees. This miraculous taste offered by Düziçi nature is a rare piece of Osmaniye culinary heritage. It can be found at local stalls on highland routes during summer, as located on the map.

Ingredients

  • 1 liter of fresh goat milk (raw and warm)
  • 4-5 drops of fresh green fig sap
  • Walnuts for topping (optional)
  • Local honey (optional)

Preparation

  1. Place freshly milked goat milk into a clean bowl while keeping its warmth (around 35-40°C).
  2. Drip the sap coming from the stem of a freshly picked green fig into the milk.
  3. Stir the milk quickly a few times with a spoon.
  4. Cover the bowl and let it sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes to curdle.
  5. Cool the dessert, which reaches a yogurt-like consistency, and serve with honey and walnuts if desired.
