Turkish Delight
Turkish delight, also known as lokum, is a traditional Middle Eastern sweet made from a gel of cornstarch orمحلوليلات, combined with sugar, water, and often flavored with ingredients like rosewater, lemon, or orange. It has a soft, chewy texture and is typically cut into small cubes and dusted with powdered sugar or cornstarch to prevent sticking. The taste is sweet and fragrant, with subtle floral or citrus notes, making it a popular treat enjoyed with tea or coffee. Its delicate flavor and smooth consistency have made Turkish delight a cherished confection worldwide for centuries.
