Turkish Tulumba Dessert

Tulumba dessert is an indispensable part of Turkish culture, consisting of dough and sherbet, appealing to all tastes. The Tulumba dessert, which entered the Ottoman palace cuisine from the Balkan culture, had an important place among the 70 desserts made in the palace. Here is a detailed recipe for you; Turkish Tulumba Dessert!

The most distinctive feature of Tulumba dessert is that it has a crispy crust on the outside and a soft dough inside. The crispy texture of the outer crust takes you to a completely different world at the first bite. Its shape is special. Therefore, you should definitely use the star shape of the piping bag. So you can get the original appearance of the tulumba dessert.

You should not forget the delicious sherbet flavor that spreads in your mouth as soon as you bite it. The most important aspect that increases the taste of Tulumba is the flavor and density of the sherbet. It is very important to balance the density of the sherbet so that the dough absorbs the sherbet well. Otherwise, the tulumba dessert may be moist rather than crispy.

If you eat Tulumba dessert with Turkish coffee, filter coffee and tea, you will notice that its flavor is multiplied. In this recipe, we preferred the healthiest method instead of deep-frying the tulumba: Air Fryer.

2

When it boils, add a cup of flour and mix with a spatula and cook for 3-4 minutes on low heat. If you wish, you can extend this period a little longer if you are not in a hurry to make it before ordering. The dough will be more delicious when the bottom sticks to the pan and burns.

To cool the dough, take it to the counter and spread it on the counter to cool. Then add one and half eggs, a tablespoon of starch, one and half tablespoons of semolina and a teaspoon of vinegar to the cooled dough.

4

Knead the dough well. Attach the star-shaped piece to the end of the piping bag and place the kneaded dough into it. Apply a little oil to the Airfryer with the help of a brush. Cut and squeeze the prepared dough into the Airfryer.
