Turkish Bread (“Ekmek”) is a staple part of the Turkish Culture and household.
Aromas of freshly baked bread from our Mahmutlar Bakeries is so appetising. Fresh bread is baked in Mahmutlar Bakeries several times a day.
Turkish bread is an important part of the daily meal. Large chunks of fresh bread are simply torn off and eaten alongside any meal.
This delicious bread can be also be consumed as a snack accompanied by Turkish tea, homemade jams and dips.
What is Turkish Bread Like from Mahmutlar Bakeries
Bread from the local bakery is fresh and usually made from local flours with no preservatives or additives added. Because of this we recommend that you eat loaves and rolls quickly as they go stale. They do not last as long pre-packed processed loaves from the supermarket.
A meal at home or in a restaurant is unthinkable in Turkey without bread.
As a consequence you will find that it is a daily ritual for most workers to stock up on oven-fresh bread for the evening meal on the way.
