Kesme or eriste is a type of egg noodle found in various Turkic cuisines, including Kyrgyz and Kazakh cuisine. It is also found in Turkish cuisine and is called erişte and “kesme” in modern standard Turkish. The word itself is a nominalisation of the verb to cut or to slice, referring to the slicing of the dough involved in preparing the noodles. The term may refer to the noodles themselves, or the prepared dish made with them. Kesme is traditionally a homemade dish, and not often found at restaurants or cafés. In Turkey, kesme is also known as "erişte", and eaten generally in winter. It is made from flour, egg, water, salt and milk. These ingredients are worked into a dough, which is rolled out, cut, and dried in the sun or an oven after dried for a day.

Orzo, also known as risoni, is a form of short-cut pasta, shaped like a large grain of rice. Orzo is traditionally made from white flour, but it can also be made of whole grain.

Gozleme is a savory Turkish stuffed flatbread. The dough is usually unleavened, and made only with flour, salt and water, but gozleme can be made from yeast dough as well.

The dough is rolled thin, then filled with various toppings, sealed, and cooked over a griddle. Gozleme may sometimes be made from prepackaged hand-rolled leaves of yufka dough. Fillings for gozleme are numerous and vary by region and personal preference, and include a variety of meats (minced beef, chopped lamb, fresh or smoked seafood, sucuk, pastirma), vegetables (spinach, zucchini, eggplant, leek, chard, various peppers, onion, scallion, shallot, garlic), mushrooms (porcino, chanterelle, truffle), tubers (potatoes, yams, radish), cheeses (feta, Turkish white cheese, lavas, Beyaz peynir, cokelek, Kasseri, and Kashkaval), as well as eggs, seasonal herbs, and spices.❄️❄️PERISHABLE ITEM❄️❄️ Perishables must be shipped using UPS express shipping methods.

Our Kuskus is a perfect ingredient for chicken, tomato and vegetable soups and great pasta choice for minestrone and Italian Wedding Soup.
