What is the specialty of Turkey?

Turkish barbecue comes from Turkish cuisine, also known as Qingzhen cuisine, and is one of the three major cuisines in the world. So in the authentic turkey, the barbecue is mainly beef, mutton, chicken and fish. (Three world cuisines: The three world cuisines refer to China cuisine, Turkish cuisine and French cuisine. )

The popularity of Turkish barbecue can not be separated from one country, that is Germany. Due to the increase of German-Turkish immigrants after World War II, Turkish barbecue became popular, and there were western-style innovations. For example, the popularity of sauces and salads, the diversity of varieties and so on.

There are many kinds of barbecues in Turkey, which are called KEBAP in Turkish. In some cities in China, you can see a man with a big kitchen knife cutting large pieces of meat from a group of roasted meat and putting them in buns. The sign is called Turkish rotary barbecue. Sometimes that big, bright kitchen knife will make people lose their appetite.

When I arrived in Turkey and saw the real Turkish barbecue, I realized how little I knew about the Turkish barbecue in China.

Spectacular barbecue columns and overflowing aroma fill streets, shopping malls, restaurants, stations, amusement places and residential areas, becoming a beautiful landscape in the streets of Europe and America. Its enduring hot scene is breathtaking and unforgettable.

Turkish sepiolite is one of the most precious and rare minerals in the world, which only occurs in the surrounding area of Eskisehir, which is 100 meters underground. Sepiolite is a white or yellowish block with white stripes on its surface. Because of its pale color, soft texture and certain hardness, it is the first choice for making handicrafts.

Sepiolite has two characteristics. First, due to photosynthesis, it will turn yellow-brown after a long time, which shows its collection value. The second is fire resistance, which has a natural filtering effect on tobacco, so it is often used to make pipes.
