What is Kerebic with pistachio?
Kerebic with pistachio is a traditional pastry cookie associated especially with Mersin in southern Turkey. Its dough is made with semolina and flour, filled with pistachios, shaped in a mould and baked. The shell is crumbly, while the filling brings a rich, nutty flavour.
In Mersin, it is commonly served beneath a light foam made from çöven root, often finished with cinnamon; elsewhere, it makes a distinctive accompaniment to tea or a sweet to share. The pastry is energy-dense, with carbohydrates and fat making up much of its nutritional profile. For a smaller treat, share a piece or enjoy it with unsweetened tea, and ask for less foam if you prefer a lighter serving.
