Easy and Refreshing Turkish Cold Yogurt Soup, Ayran Aşı
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 тра 2024
- Ayran Aşı (Ayran in Turkish generally refers to salted yogurt drink and "aş" means food) is a traditional cold soup perfect for those scorching summer days. Hailing from the heart of Anatolia, this dish is a celebration of simple, wholesome ingredients coming together in harmony.
Ayran Aşı boasts a symphony of flavors, blending creamy yogurt with tender cooked whole wheat, fresh herbs, and hearty chickpeas. What makes this version special? Unlike its winter counterpart which is cooked and made with vegetables such as courgette / zucchini, sometimes spinach, this version is simple and served chilled, making it a go-to choice for beating the summer heat.
With just a handful of staple ingredients and limited cooking required, it's a breeze to whip up in your own kitchen.

hakikaten yapmışsın. çok da güzel görünüyor. afiyet olsun.
I love this soup. Hot summer days become chilly with this nice dish. I also love how relaxing your videos are. Hope the UA-cam algorithm would work in a way that your videos can be seen by others.
Thank you 🙏
Great summer soup from Turkey i need to try it
This looks beautiful! And easy to make.
Прекрасна и хранителна рецепта. Благодаря! В България имаме подобен вариант - таратор, като в млечната смес със същите подправки добавяме само ситно нарязана краставица.
Yes, while it was being prepared, I thought that cucumber would be welcome in the soup. Maybe even finely diced celery would work well in addition to the cucumber.
@@Hollis_has_questions С краставица е идеално за горещите дни през лятото. Тя съдържа витамини и минерали, които компенсират загубата им при потенето. Може да се добавят и малко нарязани на дребно орехи. Поздрави!❤
@@user-qy4ov8dp5yThanks for the advice. Walnuts would be PERFECT!
Just perfect. ✨
Delicious thanks ❤
Awesome recipe chef, please show Turkish urfa kabab recipe please 🥺 please
Looks amazing. Where to gut such an awesome bowl for the soup?
i like It
Delicious recipe! I love ayran aşı :) In Elazığ where my mom is from, they cook ayran with wheat and cihckpeas which I'm not that fond of :)) And they do not add garlic, but why not, it may add extra flavour :) I am lazy, so I prepare ayran and put boiled orzo and sometimes add boiled chickpeas instead together with fresh mint leaves :)) Ellerinize sağlık!
Thank you for the recipe, definitely want to try it! Can you make the strained sour yoghurt yourself? Thank you
Yes, just keep the temperature a bit higher and strain through a cheese cloth.
Thank you! I am going to try this. Love your recipes!
Sir, dill is not available in my country, if I don't use it taste will be same?? Bless you
Not a must, you can use whatever fresh herbs you like.
