What is Hashhasli?
Hashhasli is a traditional Turkish pastry made by spreading ground poppy-seed paste through or over yeasted dough, then rolling or shaping it into a loaf or spiral. Recipes vary by region and household, so it may be soft and bread-like or have distinct layers. The filling brings a deep, nutty, slightly toasted flavour, while the dough is tender and gently chewy.
In Turkey, it is commonly sliced for breakfast or served as a snack with tea; it also pairs easily with coffee elsewhere. The dough supplies much of its carbohydrate, while the poppy-seed paste makes it energy-dense and contributes fat, fibre and some protein. Enjoy a modest slice with unsweetened tea, or serve it with fresh vegetables for a lighter-feeling meal.
