Quoting Elisa: Is that the kind of köfte that is kneaded for quite a while? Someone once told me that because of that it gets cooked, I didn't like the idea so much really...  |
Yes. But I wonder how it gets cooked by just kneading it with hot spices. I never thought that would be possible but apparantly it is!

I know now at least two things I won't eat in Turkey: kelle çorbası and işkembe! Organmeat - yikes, no kidneys, tripe, liver or other intestine stuff for me. I love biftek, lamb, chicken, most types of fish (though none of the shell-fish range).
I tasted frog too, nice but not too special for the price. Like Elisa said, it tastes a bit like chicken.
The most strange (well...) thing I've eaten was bashishi, raw horsemeat in Japan, delicious!
And Deli, a 'scharrelei' is a free-range egg.

Quoting Deli_kizin: Only, I havent been able to find 'scharrel' eggs in Turkey  (I dont know in English, the eggs from a chicken that has had a free life on a farm). |
Interesting.. Those are "free-range eggs" btw. Wonder what it is in Turkish..

Well the warmth of the hands while kneading it should have something to do with it as well.. At least that's what I've been told..

Thank you both
You would say that with all the free space here there would be lots of free-range eggs, but when I asked Kadir, he said the ones in the supermarket probably are not :-S

Definitely agree on that one!

Well, looks like I'm not too picky when it comes to food.. 
There's one thing I'll never eat though. There was a restaurant overhere that used to serve "water rabbit" but actually it's muskrat. I may be prejudiced but the thought of it freaks me out

Yeah, I've heard of this (waterkonijn), it makes me sick only thinking of it.
