Turkish Breakfast

Breakfast is an important part of Turkish life. Although every country has its own breakfast, Turkish breakfast is an integral part of Turkish culture, bringing together large families and friends and setting a positive mood for the whole day.

The most common Turkish breakfast foods are eggs (cooked in different ways, such as "menemen"), various fresh vegetables, cheeses, olives, sausages, spicy and non-spicy pastas spread on bread; for sweets, "kaymak" with honey or jam spread on bread. And you certainly can't have breakfast without fresh and hot Turkish black tea brewed in a special kettle called "çaydanlık".
