Frequently Asked Questions About Keşkül with walnut

What is Keşkül with walnut?

Keşkül with walnut is a Turkish milk pudding made with milk, sugar and a thickener, with walnuts mixed in or added on top. It is usually portioned into small bowls and served chilled.

What is Keşkül with walnut?

Keşkül with walnut is a Turkish milk pudding, made by cooking milk with sugar and a thickener until smooth, then adding or topping it with walnuts. Keşkül is associated with Ottoman cuisine and is a familiar dessert in Turkish homes and pastry shops; recipes and garnishes vary.

Served chilled, it has a soft, creamy set and a mild sweetness, with walnuts bringing a toasted flavour and a little crunch. In Turkey it is usually enjoyed after a meal, or alongside coffee or tea.
