Here’s the thing. Unless you’ve been to Turkey and/or know someone with appropriate cultural heritage, you’ve likely never had good Turkish Delight.
There’s a distinct quality difference between TD made with love for people who enjoy quality… and the shitty TD that’s mostly sold to tourists and in supermarkets, aimed at people who don’t know the difference.
When it’s well made, it really is a lovely treat.
I love a bunch of Turkish sweets and have the pleasure of having authentic Turkish sweets available close to me, but man I just really dislike Turkish delights lol
I think pişmaniye are better than Turkish delight.
