What is Breakfast sauce (Tukaş)?
Breakfast sauce (Tukaş) is a Turkish table sauce made with tomato, pepper and spices, intended for the breakfast table. Use it as a spread on bread or as a savoury accompaniment to other dishes.
Its flavour combines tomato’s gentle sweetness and tang with the savoury warmth of pepper and spices, while its thick texture makes it easy to spread. In Turkey, it may be served with bread, eggs and cheese as part of a leisurely breakfast; elsewhere, try it on toast or alongside a simple egg dish. It is mostly a source of carbohydrates, with some fibre: each 100 g provides 2 g of fibre. A little goes a long way, so pair a modest serving with fresh vegetables for a lighter plate.
