Turkey's 'lion's milk', distilled twice with aniseed. Drunk slowly through a long meal of meze and fish.
Powder-fine coffee simmered in a small pot (cezve) and served unfiltered with the grounds settling in the cup. UNESCO lists it as intangible heritage.
Salted yoghurt drink, Turkey's national drink; doogh is Iran's fizzy minty version.
İskender serves döner slices on bread with tomato sauce, sizzling butter and yoghurt.
Layered filo with nuts and syrup; Gaziantep's pistachio baklava is protected.
Crisp 'Turkish pizza'.
Earthy, bitter golden root; India grows about 75% of the world's supply. Gives curries their yellow colour.
Warm, nutty seed; crackled whole in hot oil (tadka) or roasted and ground.
The 'queen of spices': floral and sweet. Black cardamom (badi elaichi) is smoky.
The 'king of spices' and 'black gold', which drew European traders to Kerala.
The world's most expensive spice by weight: about 150,000 flowers for 1 kg.
True cinnamon from Sri Lanka is delicate; cassia (common in India) is stronger.
