What is Roasted terebinth?
Roasted terebinth is made from the small fruits of the terebinth tree, native to the Mediterranean and parts of western Asia. In Turkey, the roasted fruits are commonly ground to make menengiç coffee, rather than being treated simply as a snack nut.
Roasting brings out an earthy, resinous aroma and a pleasantly toasted flavour. The ground fruit is simmered with water or milk and served in a small cup, often alongside a sweet bite. Roasted terebinth is rich in fats and fibre, so a little can be satisfying; a tablespoon is a practical starting portion. For a lighter drink, prepare it with water and go easy on added sugar.
