Simit: A Cornerstone of Street Food
Every nation has its distinctive bread; in Turkey, it’s called simit. This circular bread, generously coated with sesame seeds, is special in local cuisine.
It’s common to encounter a vendor on street corners during the morning hours, expertly balancing a box of simit on their head. They often enthusiastically call out ‘simit’ at the top of their lungs, adding a charming touch to this delightful tradition.”
