What is Kırkağaç pide?

Kırkağaç pide is a traditional oven-baked bread from Kırkağaç, in Turkey’s Manisa province. Made from a flour-based dough, it may be finished with sesame or nigella seeds and is commonly bought fresh from local bakeries.

Its crust is lightly browned while the middle stays soft and bread-like. In Turkey, it can accompany breakfast foods, be served with meals in place of other bread, or be eaten with tea. Outside the region, it works much like a familiar flatbread: split for a sandwich or served alongside soup, dips or grilled dishes. It is mainly a carbohydrate source, with modest protein; pair it with vegetables and a protein-rich filling for a more substantial meal.
