Turkish Bagel with Sesame Seeds Recipe
Turkish bagels, also known as'simit,' are a popular Turkish street food. They are denser and chewier than American bagels, with a slightly sweet flavor. Sesame seeds are sprinkled on top of these bagels, adding a nutty flavor and a crunchy texture. They go well with tea or coffee for breakfast or as a snack.
