Introduction

Turkey is blessed with an abundance of varied, first-class ingredients, and people who enjoy food so much that they make full use of ingredients to create, with infinite skills, an exciting encyclopedia of colorful dishes.  The signatures of Turkish cooking are the crafts of enticing, aromatic smells that herald the rich flavors, fragrant with spices that are blended and trapped inside. However, it is wrong to think that Turkish food is all heavily spiced and hot.

Some dishes have subtle flavors to allow the true taste of good-quality produce to shine through, such as vegetable soup. When spices are added, they are used with such expertise that the flavors are mellow and harmonious. Not all dishes contain chilies, and those that do can be as hot or mild as you like.

Turkish Slow Cooker Cookbook shows how to make your own Iskenderun Kebabs, and how to transform them into endless variety of dishes.  There are tantalizing recipes covering the whole range of Turkish eating from today’s favorite quick snacks, to dishes suitable for festive occasion. Also included are mouth-watering bean vegetables and bean dishes that show that vegetarian food can be fun. Finally, there is a selection of delicious desserts and drinks with the distinctive tastes of Turkey.

One of the joys of Turkish cooking is that it is easy to prepare at home; recipes are not complicated at all. With few exceptions; ingredients are not difficult to find, and there are no fanciful arrangements, garnishes and decorations. The typical ebullient, friendly and informal Turkish personality is the transferred to the food, making it an endless source of relaxed pleasure.
