This past summer, my friend Jodi and I had the pleasure of travelling through Turkey and Greece for three wonderful and fascinating weeks. One of the highlights was, of course, eating the incredible local delicacies! Travelling is one of my favourite pastimes mostly because of the food! I could eat my way through any place on this earth! In Istanbul there is a famous spice market at the centre of the city. Locals and tourists come together each day to buy different spices native to Turkey and to Turkish Cuisine. The aroma in the Spice Hall is outstanding and one not to be missed! Jodi and I brought home some delicious spices including Turkish saffron, Ottoman spice (a blend of many spices used since the days of the Ottoman Empire), and mixed peppercorns. For any foodie, the Spice Market is heaven!
