Product Story, Production Method & Cultural Heritage

Yeast dough is made into rings, boiled in boiling black grapes (scented grapes) or mulberry molasses, and baked crispy directly in the stone oven without using any sesame seeds (kel simit).

History: A centuries-old street delicacy known as 'kel simit' because sesame is not used and is an indispensable accompaniment of breakfast along with Rize tea.

Production Method: It is boiled in a molasses boiler, dried in a wood oven and cooked hard and crispy.
