Piyaz, şiş köfte and tahini
Antalya-style piyaz is defined by a tahini-based tarator rather than being a simple bean salad. It is traditionally paired with şiş köfte; hibeş, tahini pumpkin dessert and burnt ice cream extend the same flavour family.
FOOD & DRINK
Antalya’s table brings together Yörük pastoral culture, citrus gardens, tahini, legumes, herbs, fish and the cooking traditions of inland districts.
