People usually hold diş buğdayı when a baby’s first tooth appears. Families may celebrate on the day they notice it or shortly afterward; there is no fixed date or required schedule.

Diş buğdayı is made by boiling wheat kernels until tender, then draining them. Families serve the kernels plain or add toppings such as pomegranate seeds, nuts, raisins, or sweets, depending on local and family traditions.

Boiled wheat is the defining ingredient in diş buğdayı. Optional additions include chickpeas, walnuts, hazelnuts, pomegranate seeds, raisins, or candy; recipes vary by region and some households keep the dish simple.

At diş buğdayı, objects associated with different occupations may be placed in front of the baby as a playful way to guess their future interests. The choice is symbolic, not a prediction or a formal part of every family’s celebration.

At diş buğdayı, each object is traditionally linked with an occupation or interest; a book, for example, may suggest learning. Interpretations differ between families, so the choice is best understood as a lighthearted custom.

Whole boiled wheat kernels can pose a choking risk for babies, even when served at a diş buğdayı celebration. Choose a texture appropriate to the baby’s age and feeding skills, and ask their pediatrician if you are unsure about introducing wheat.

Diş buğdayı and diş hediği usually refer to the same first-tooth celebration and its boiled-wheat dish. The name and recipe vary by region; some families use “hedik” specifically for the boiled kernels.

Diş buğdayı is commonly spooned into bowls and topped according to the family’s recipe. It is shared with guests at the gathering, and some families also send portions to relatives or neighbors who could not attend.

Refrigerate leftover diş buğdayı promptly in a covered container and eat it within a few days. Add fresh fruit or crunchy toppings just before serving, since they can soften or lose freshness during storage.
