Meat courses are based on lamb and mutton, they can include beef and chicken, no pork. The most widespread methods of food processing are roasting and grilling, as in famous Turkish kebaps and kofte.
There are also many fish dishes and extreme variety of dairy products. The bread types include common sourdough loaf, leavened flat bread, paper-thin lavash. Bread is baked fresh every early morning. The country is famous for succulent fruit and numerous fragrant varieties of honey. Turkish tea is very strong and acts as excellent stimulant and thirst-quencher in summer.
