Bread & Dough

Trabzon bread, 11" diameter and 1.30lb in weight. It is known nearly everywhere in Turkey as “Vakfıkebir” or “Trabzon” bread. ... As it's cooked in stone ovens, it is also known as “Stone oven” (Taşfırın) bread.

Yufka is a round and very thin sheets of unleavened flour dough. It is used to make Turkish flatbread and pastries, and has been considered as one of the most important food items in the Turkish as well as in the Balkan and Middle Eastern cuisines. Some say that yufka may have been the earlier form of phyllo/filo dough. More specifically, Turkish yufka is usually made from wheat flour mixed with a little salt and water to form a dough. To make yufka, the dough should be made to rest for just about half an hour or so after it is kneaded and rolled into large paper-thin round sheets (very similar to lavas) by using an oklava, a long roller used to make yufka. After the large thin sheets of dough are done, they should be heated or baked on both sides for just about 2-3 minutes on a hot saç until they get a slightly brown color. The saç is a round shaped hot iron plate commonly used in Turkey for making yufka and flatbread. PERISHABLE ITEM❄️❄️ Perishables must be shipped using FedEx express shipping methods.

Alternatively known as ‘Kataif” or “Kunafeh,” Kataïfi, it is the traditional pastry used in myriad of traditional Greek, Turkish, Balkan and Arab desserts. Interestingly, in all cases, the dough is also the name of the finished prepared desserts. Our Kataïfi is just the pastry base you’ll need for Greek Kataïfi, a confection of chopped nuts, cinnamon and butter, which is rolled into the form of nests. To make this elegant treat, drizzle Apollo Kataïfi with butter, then layer and roll or nest almonds, pistachios or walnuts mixed with butter, sugar, cinnamon or cardamom. After baking, drench the pastry sheet, or individual pastries, in a honey, rosewater, orange water or lemon simple syrup. Our Kataïfi is also the perfect dough for the delectable classic Arab sweet confection, kunafeh (made the addition of cheese) and for the delicious Ramadan staple, kunafa (made with the addition of dried apricots). This unique dough can also be used to add texture to vanilla ice cream sundaes with fresh bananas and caramel or chocolate sauce.
