    >Hello, Hulya! I enjoy your website because I am an American living in Turkey. Turkish food is delicious, but Turks don’t measure their amounts for yabanci. Thank you for giving recipes! I recently had a delicious sauce at a Kebap. The waiter said it was “tarator”. He told me the basic ingredients were yogurt, limon, pul biber, garlic. Do you have a recipe for Turkish tarator? I looked online, and most recipes used tahini, but this kebap did not put tahini in their sauce. The main ingredient is yogurt. It’s really delicious, and I’d like to make it at home. Any suggestions? Thanks! Lisa (in Ankara)

  3. >as far as I know, Tarator sauce is genereally used as a dip for fried fish dishes or any other seafood. It basicly consists tahini, chopped walnut,fresh lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt,ground cumin, cayenne pepper…But I haven’t tried it before… so feel free to try with yogurt… the one that you liked, then share your experience with us :))Take care Lisa

    >Hulya,The tarator sauce I ate was served before the meal with the lavaş. This kebap brings lavaş, ezme, and tarator sauce to the table. The tarator sauce (yogurt based) is delicious with bread. Thanks for your input. I’ll experiment and see what happens. Thanks!Grace and Peace,Lisa

  8. I love bulgur wheat, especially with grilled chicken. We make it a lot but never present it as beautifully as you have done! 🙂
