@tasteatlas: Tulumba 📍 Türkiye 🇹🇷 ⭐️ 4.1 💯 #21 best rated deep-fried dessert in the world Turkish tulumba is a hot water dough fritter traditionally found in the cuisines of the former Ottoman Empire, particularly throughout the Middle East and the Balkans. These deep-fried, crisp-shelled treats deliver a serious kick of sugar as they are soaked in thick, sometimes lemon-flavored syrup. In Lebanon and Syria, they often use orange blossom and rose water for flavoring, while Gulf countries add cardamom and saffron as well, and in Morocco they use heated honey instead of syrup. 📽: IG@tatliciademusta #traditionalfood #golocal #eatlikealocal #türkiye #turkishfood #tulumba
