EAST & SOUTHEAST ANATOLIA - TURKEY
Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia
With its high mountain ranges, remote plateaus, lakes and river beds splashed with colour, plus some of the best Turkish architecture anywhere, this region of Anatolia brings history to life. Sivas, Divriği, Erzurum, Battalgazi, Harput, and Ahlat, allcities in this region, were important centres of Seljuk art. In Eastern Anatolia are the cities of Ağrı, Bingöl, Bitlis, Elazığ, Erzincan, Erzurum, Hakkari, Kars, Malatya, Muş, Tunceli, Van, Ardahan and Iğdır, while in the southeast are the largercities of Adıyaman, Diyarbakır, Gaziantep, Mardin, Siirt, Şanlıurfa, Batman, Şırnak and Kilis. Travelling around the east is more challenging, with huge distances between towns, extremes of climate and fewer facilities, but this is amply compensated bythe remote beauty, relatively unspoilt scenery and of course hospitality of the people.
The city of Erzurum is located on a large plane at an altitude of 1950 metres, and contains many religious schools, tombs and mosques from both the Seljuk and Ottoman period. Kars, in the far northeast, is famous for its castle, and nearby Ocaklı (Ani)is a historical city with rich architecture from the 10th and 11th centuries. Mount Ararat (Agri Dagi), whose peak soars up to 5165 metres, is significant to different religions. It is believed that after the Flood, in which all humanity was destroyed, Noah's ark came to rest on Mount Ararat and as the waters receded, Noah andhis family settled on the nearby plane of Igdir. As their numbers increased, they eventually spread along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers to other parts of Anatolia.
Accordingly, Igdir is seen as the centre from which the second generation of humanitymultiplied and again spread over the world.The magnificent palace complex of İshak Paşa, which looks down onto Dogubeyazit, was built in the late 17th century by the Ottoman governor Ishak Pasa. The location and appearance of the castle is stunning, and is made up of a kitchen unit, a mosqueand separate womens and mens quarters.Lake Van is one of the highlights of the country and a tour of the entire lake should be made in order to experience the full range of beauty, including beautiful mountain silhouettes, bays, beaches, islands and important centres of Turkish culture andart. The city of Van, on the southeast of the lake, was the capital city of the Urartu empire and Van Castle, built around 1000 BC, is a marvellous example of that age.
South of Van, the city of Edremit is a poplar vacation spot famous for its beaches, campsites and restaurants. On the island of Akdamar is a museum which was originally a 10th century church. As the Tigris and Euphrates flow towards the planesof Mesopotamia, they pass through an important region of Anatolia which contains the cities of Diyarbakir, Mardin, Adıyaman, Şanlıurfa and Gaziantep, which is the oldest cultural settlement centre in Anatolia. North of Diyarbakır is Çayonu, the mostimportant neolithic settlement of the area. The basalt walls of Diyarbakır, which are more than 5km long, are the longest city walls in the country.Mardin is one of the few cities in the country that has preserved its traditional aesthetic architecture, and is unique also because of its unusual location on top of a hill.
The prophet Abraham, who is the father of three different religions,is believed to have lived in Şanlıurfa and Harran and so are considered to be sacred places.The Atatürk Dam, built in Bozova near Şanlıurfa, is the biggest in Turkey and the fourth largest in the world, and the area around Harran will be the most productive agricultural region of the country. Gaziantep is the most important industrial andagricultural area in southeastern Anatolia, and best known for its special varieties of kebap, lahmacun and baklava, and its Antep pistachios.Northeast of Adıyaman, on top of Mount Nemrut (Nemrut Dag) is the mausoleum made for the Commagene King, Antiochus I. On the east and west of the memorial grave site are the terraces where rituals were carried out, and of course the world famous hugestatues of the gods, which are best experienced at sunrise or sunset. Malatya is an important industrial and agricultural region on the lower Euphrates, famous for its apricots and the 13th century Ulu Cami mosque in Battalgazi with its beautiful glazed tiles.
Watching Kunefe being made in Antakya, Hatay, Turkey
Visiting the best Kunefe in Hatay (a region in southern Turkey known for this cheese treat). This place is found in the center of the Bazaar and is called Çınaralti Künefe Yusuf Usta. Many places don't cook over coal any more but these guys are 100% legit!
History of Kunefe
Native to the southeastern parts of Turkey that border the Mediterranean sea, künefe represents regional Turkish cuisine very well. In fact, the best Turkish kebabs also come from this area of the country. It's no coincidence that künefe is found only in restaurants that sell kebab fare.
The traditional recipe for künefe is believed to originate from the city of Hatay, though many cities in the region lay claim to inventing it. Important southeastern cities like Mersin, Adana, Gaziantep, Kilis, Şanlıurfa, Diyarbakır, and Mardin all have their own variations of the dessert. It's also popular in other parts of the Arabic world, like the Levant, Egypt, the Caucasus, and Greece.
Also known as kanafeh, the Palestinians say that it actually originated in Nabulus, due to its use of white-brine cheese called Nabulsi. Said to be invented in the 10th century, the main ingredients are the same and involve sugar, cheese, pistachios, rose water, and kaymak. Other versions of the pastry are made with a crust from long thin noodle threads and semolina dough.
How to Prepare It
Künefe is hard to prepare, so it's almost never made at home. Most people wait until they eat at a kebab house to enjoy the authentic dessert.
If you're up for the challenge, however, you can try making it. It is recommended that you have a shallow metal künefe pan, or a small, shallow cast iron skillet. If you're traveling in Turkey, you can buy a specific künefe pan at restaurant supply shops, local bazaars, or at the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul.
The main ingredient in künefe is kadayıf, the finely shredded dough that's partially baked to dry it. First, a large clump of kadayıf is pulled apart to separate the shreds. It's then chopped into fine pieces. The pan should be heavily buttered before pressing the chopped kadayıf into the bottom to make an even layer.
Next, a filling of low-salt Turkish cheese like kashar, lor, or dil is placed in the middle. Another layer of chopped kadayıf is then pressed on top of the cheese to make the top layer. After that, large amounts of clarified butter are drizzled over the top to saturate the kadayıf. Finally, the tray is placed in the oven and baked until the top becomes brown and crispy.
Before serving, the top of the künefe is sprinkled with bright green ground pistachios. It's then cut into wedges and served piping hot so that the cheese remains soft and stringy.
