Yılbaşı, şükran günü özel günlere sakladığım bir pilav tarif. Tarçın ve kuş üzümünün tatlılığı, taze çekilmiş karabiberin acısı, kestanelerin çıtırlığı bir arada. A rice recipe I save for special occasions like Thanskgiving and New Year’s Eve. A touch of sweet from cinnamon and currants, a touch of spiciness with fresh blackpepper, and the final nutty touch of roasted chestnuts.

Bizim ailede çorba çok sevilir. Kuşaktan kuşağa geçen bir yemek alışkanlığı olsa gerek. Hele bazı çorbalar vardır ki yanında başka bir yemek aranmaz. Evde sarımsaklı kıymalı tarhana çorbası yapılınca da hep teyzemi anarız. Sarımsakla kavrulmuş kıyma kokusu ile başlayıp ardından ağzı sulandıran hafif acılı nane ve tarhana kokusu mu yoksa soğuk kış günlerinde insanı kemiklerine kadar ısıtan sıcaklığı mı bilinmez ama sofralarımızdan hiç eksik olmayacağı kesin. | We love soup!
