What is Small walnut sucuk?

Small walnut sucuk is a traditional Turkish sweet, not a meat sausage. Walnuts threaded on a string are coated in a thick mixture usually made with grape molasses and flour or starch, then dried. It is also known in Turkey as cevizli sucuk or köme, with recipes and the choice of molasses varying by region.

The coating is chewy and slightly dense, while the walnuts add a crisp, rich bite. It is commonly sliced into small pieces and served with tea, especially as a winter snack; it also works alongside coffee or on a dried-fruit platter. With molasses and walnuts, it is energy-dense and high in carbohydrates, with some protein and fibre. A small piece makes a satisfying sweet bite, and unsweetened tea keeps the pairing simple.
