What Is Sucuk? 

Sucuk—also spelled sujuk or soudjouk—is a Turkish national dish. Variations of it are also found in Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and the Middle East. It is known as sudzhuk in Bulgaria and Russia, suxhuk in Albania, and soutzouki in Greece.

Turkish sucuk is usually made with ground beef, though some butchers add a bit of lamb for more flavor. Further east, in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, sucuk may also contain horse meat. As Turkey has a large Muslim population, pork is not used.

Sucuk is a semi-dried beef-based sausage made by a dry-curing process. Ground meat is well mixed with salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic, cumin, sumac, and other common Turkish spices. The mixture is then piped into natural or plastic sausage casings and left to dry for several weeks. During this curing period, the salt and other spices ferment with the ground meat, creating a chemical reaction that changes the molecular structure, flavor, and consistency of the meat, and also acts as a preservation agent.

These delicious tiny treasures, Manti or Mantu, dumplings with spiced ground meat and onion, is one of the all time favorite dishes in Turkey. In especially Anatolia, family members gather to prepare the dough and fill the tiny dough squares with the filling together; it is a bit of a labor of love, so it is great to get together for making it, and so worth the effort. The marriage of the melt-in-the-mouth dumplings with garlic yoghurt sauce and spice infused olive oil is simply irresistible. Tangy Sumac, red pepper flakes and dried mint infused in olive oil all add another layer of deliciousness and work greatly with garlic yoghurt as the sauce for manti. ❄️❄️PERISHABLE ITEM❄️❄️ Perishables must be shipped using FedEx express shipping methods.

For millennia, there has been a respected cheesemaking tradition in Turkey that is passed down from generation to generation. Beyaz Peynir, which literally translates to “white cheese”, is the Turkish version of Feta. Among the most popular cheeses in the region, Beyaz Peynir comes in many variations, using cow’s milk, sheep’s milk or goat’s milk. Tahsildaroglu Traditional Feta Cheese is made exclusively from the milk of naturally fed cows in the Ezine region of the Taz Mountains. Made similarly to Greek Feta, Tahsildaroglu Traditional Feta Cheese is a white brined and aged crumbly cheese, with a tangy and slightly salty flavor. Enjoy our Feta in a classic Turkish breakfast or as an appetizer with tomato, cucumbers, olives and a drizzle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Tahsildaroglu Traditional Feta Cheese is a “must” for any Meze table and a core ingredient in a Shepherd’s Salad, the Turkish version of a Greek Salad. Whatever culinary preparation you choose, this healthy low fat cheese will not disappoint! ❄PERISHABLE ITEM❄❄ Perishable items must be shipped using FedEx Express shipping only.
