Kandil simidi
Kandil simidi is a special type of Turkish bread that is often eaten during religious holidays and celebrations. It is shaped like a long, thin rope with a knot in the middle and covered in sesame seeds.
To make kandil simidi, first, a dough is made by mixing flour, water, yeast, and salt together. The dough is then kneaded until it is smooth and elastic.
Next, the dough is divided into small pieces and rolled out into thin ropes. The ropes are then twisted together and formed into the distinctive knot shape. Finally, the kandil simidi is brushed with egg wash and sprinkled with sesame seeds before being baked in the oven until golden brown.
When it is ready, the kandil simidi is eaten as a snack or served alongside other traditional Turkish dishes during festive occasions. It is a delicious and satisfying treat that is loved by many people in Turkey and around the world.
