To prevent that, I tried some popular methods like rotating the bird in the middle of the process, browning it beforehand and continue with roasting it in lower temperatures, etc....

Traditionally, chefs prepare borek with Turkish yufka dough, an ultra-thin, unleavened dough made from flour, water, and salt. Yufka pastry leaves recipes—like borek—often use layers of a yogurt or milk mixture to keep the dough equally moist and flakey. Although feta and spinach borek is a quintessential Turkish dish, you can find Turkish borek recipes across the former Ottoman Empire.

on May 30, 2023, Updated Jul 23, 2024 Chia pudding has been a favorite go-to snack and breakfast for me for over a decade. The seeds resemble tapioca and expand in liquid, which in turn, thickens the dish. Chia has a similar mouthfeel to tapioca, in that they pop a bit when chewed on. If you are not a fan of the texture of chia seeds, you can blend this pudding recipe after the chia has absorbed the liquid and expanded, which will give you a completely creamy and smooth consistency, while retaining all the nutritional benefits....

If you are good at making pie dough, my hat is off to you, my friend. But in my case, as someone who grew up in Turkey, I had never had a pie before I moved to the U.S. in my twenties.

Ingredients Eggplant Selecting eggplant varieties: The first step to grilling eggplant is to determine which types of eggplant work best for your recipe. I prefer globe eggplants, as they’re widely available at U.S. grocery stores, have a plump shape, and are hearty enough to withstand high grilling temperatures. However, other larger eggplants—like rosa bianca, Italian eggplant, and graffiti eggplant—would also work, though you might have to adjust your cooking time slightly....
