      it really isn't a "mexican salad". This vendor just called it that. We put whatever we like and I mean literally whatever. What he refers to probably is a mix of olives and beans and corns? There is also no "pesto". Just translated wrong. He said slightly spicy pepper paste

      @metcat88 Před měsícem +2

      In here, tinned kidney beans are called "mexican beans" so as long as they're inside the salad, it's called mexican salad for us. Personally i use diced local sour pickles, corn, roasted red peppers and sometimes adding some fresh dill inside the mix and combine them with a basic vinaigrette that contains some dried spices like cumin, black pepper, mint or oregano, pul biber (aleppo pepper) for heat and/or sumac for tanginess.

  • @erenkur3832
    @erenkur3832 Před měsícem +1

    In Rumelian dialects, and also in Albanian or Macedonian I guess, kumpir means potatoes. So it definitally came from Balkans. Balkan wars bringed a lot of refugees to Turkey, and especially Albanians had settled in cities and became dessert masters, they bringed a lot of different dessert recipees, opened creameries and ice cream Shops and Restaurants. Some sold their food as street vendors. So most likely kumpir had invented or introduced to Istanbul after Balkans wars by those refugees.

      Actually, döner was not a street food, I think it is still not a street food. I am 25 years old, and grown up in an Anatolian town. Before my high school years, döner was not even a fast food, we would go into a Restaurant and they would serve the döner on top of rice. It was not fast, and it was served in Restaurants, not Grab and go type of shops. Only in my high school years Iskenderun style döner shops started to be opened in my Town but I still don't call it a street food. Balık ekmek, corn, simit, they are street foods but döner, no. It is a fast food but not a street food I think

      @@utkua yes, indeed. In my City, however Iskenderun style döner Shops made it a popular fast food. It might have been inspired by German döner shops, however. In the City I have grown up, there were not many Restaurants and patisseries. There were just a couple of Restaurants that serving alcohol and seen as super fancy, people were taking their guests to those Restaurants, and there were Esnaf Lokantası, Restaurants of Shop keepers. Those Shop Keeper Restaurants were cheaper and they were serving döner, but they were definitaly not fast food. There were some Service, they would bring some salads etc before they bring the döner, or köfte or kebabs like adana kebap etc, and after eating they would offer some Coffee or tea and sometimes some dessert. In same time, around 2010's döner chains and hamburger shops like Burger King had came to my town. University was the main reason of those fast food shop's success. And döner became more popular since it was cheaper. But those cheap döner was different than the döner we knew, it is more like shawarma of arabs, made of chicken and has a lot of sauce. The New fast food like döner is called Iskenderun style döner and today even in Istanbul it became hard to find the original döner(of course it can be found but it is super expensive when compared to the Iskenderun style döner, because in traditional döner the meat must be in good quality). I think the arabian shawarma inspired the saucy Iskenderjn style döner, but German döner also could have inspired it. However, I have seen German döner in big cities, like the shops were selling Berlin style döner, in Turkey, and they were popular 😅 who knows, perhaps it even came to the town I have grown up oen day and became popular there😅

    Kumpir is not a street food star in Turkey. It's very regional. Plus, considerable amount of Turks are not a fan of it. If you're looking for a real authentic Turkish street food star, then go film about Turkish kebabs, but I think you can't because you are delusional that German döner and Greek gyros are better than they are in Turkey.
