EXOTIC TABLE: TURKEY

November 14, 2011  |  Take a look at scenes from a recent culinary trip I took to Turkey.  I explored Cappadocia, Bodrum and Istanbul and learned to cook Turkish cuisine from both chefs and cooks (and did a bit of teaching myself at the Istanbul Culinary Institute).  In a town called Mustafapasa, which was an old Greek settlement, I learned the high art of baklava.   Here, I take what I learned from the ladies and show you the fastest baklava recipe ever.
