    Hello everyone! :) If you have questions about the pepper paste you can watch the “Turkish Beans” video, you will see an explanation about it.

    I loved your video, and especially how you speak and explain everything. All makes lots of sense. I'm originally from the U.S.-Hispanic Territory of Guam, Mariana Islands (in the middle of the Pacific Ocean), now live in New York City. I've been to Istanbul, also used to work in a Turkish Restaurant called Café 34 Istanbul (Orlando, Florida), and, consider Turkish people a very respectful, fun and beautiful people!

    Good point about geographical references. Man adapts to what the land offers! Smart!

    Hello, thank you so much for this video. It is made perfectly, easy to follow. My Turkish husband loves this çorbasi and so do all the people here who taste it. I don't use the pepper paste, just the tomato puree plus I add dried paprika spice shortly before I put water, carefully roast it a little. It works perfect, just a tip for the people who don't have pepper paste at home. Literally everybody loves it, thank you really.
