When I arrived at Zencefil, I walked into Ferda’s kitchen. The cooks were cleaning mallow, a wild weed that can be stewed and has a texture like okra. For dinner, we ate a composed salad of black-eyed peas, pickled beets, lettuce, and tomato, followed by some stewed mallow with garlic and olive oil that tasted to me like a cross between broccoli and artichokes. We also ate Ferda’s red lentil köfte and had sweet-sour soup with chickpeas, barley, and pomegranate molasses. ” I do not think I’ve ever eaten such an exciting meal as that one at Zencefil.
CORİANDER Dried coriander seed is bright and citrusy and has a slight sage or herbaceous note. It’s acidic and perfumey. Combined with oranges, orange zest, rosé wine, sugar, and eau de vie, coriander makes a delicious aperitif.
