Quoting Daydreamer: Even kokorec couldn't spoil the pleasure of experiencing Turkey. |
Did you try it?? Aferin sana!  Maybe I will next time, but it doesn't sound that appealing to me..
Mind you, we have something similar and I never had it here either..
How is it prepared?

Not appealing? Kokorec? 
We have kokorec in Greece, but I find our "version" disgusting. Turkish one is delicious though. Try it next time

Ahmmm..no thanks! The smell put me off trying it even before I actually got enlightened about what it is made of. If you don't mind, I'll stick to what I call meat -> and the outlet of sheep's digestive system is anything but that

Smell was what troubled me too, the first time I was asked to try kokorec. But as I m so curious about different tastes, i found the courage to taste it. And it was spicy and delicious. Now, the information about the sheep's digestive system is something i successfully blocked somewhere in the back part of my mind, while eating it

I'm definitely gonna have them next time! You made me really curious. Besides, I can't give an opinion about something I don't know, can I?

Korkorec is tripe in England. İf you have ever seen tripe in a butchers shop it basically looks like a pile of greyish fur. İt is indeed the lining of a sheeps stomach. İt absolutely stinks when you cook it. My friend had a pet shop and she used to cook it and sell it for dog food. İ could never eat it in England. İ couldnt even have it in the house. But İ have tried it twice in turkey. The first time was in a friends house. Is was just fried in olive oil with no spices and was like eating stinky rubber!
The second time İ tried in Mersin because İ was assured it was delicious and actually it did not smell too bad. İt was very spicy and but even the spices could not disguise the taste for me and although İ tood several bites hoping it would improve for me it made me feel sick. So İ re named it 'cockroach' and did give it to a passing dog! My friend however thinks it is absolutely delicious and went crazy when İ gave mine to the dog! So its a matter of taste İ suppose (like everything) but for me YUK!
