Frequently Asked Questions

What are the essential Turkish spices every kitchen should have? +
The three most essential Turkish spices are Aleppo Pepper (pul biber), Urfa Biber (isot pepper), and Sumac. Aleppo Pepper provides fruity, versatile heat. Urfa Biber adds smoky depth and complexity. Sumac brings bright, citrusy tang. Together, these three spices form the foundation of Anatolian cooking and can be used in everything from kebabs and salads to eggs and dips.
What is sumac and what does it taste like? +
Sumac is a deep red-purple spice ground from dried sumac berries. It has a bright, tangy, lemony flavor β€” think of it as a dry citrus seasoning. It's widely used in Turkish, Lebanese, and Middle Eastern cooking to add acidity without liquid. Classic uses include sprinkling over onion salads, kebabs, hummus, grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and fattoush. It's also a key ingredient in za'atar spice blends.
Is this bundle good for beginners who are new to Turkish cooking? +
Absolutely β€” this is our recommended starter bundle for anyone exploring Turkish and Middle Eastern flavors. These three spices are the most versatile in Turkish cuisine and cover the widest range of dishes. Start by adding Aleppo Pepper to eggs, Sumac to salads, and Urfa Biber as a finishing spice on soups or roasted vegetables. Each recipe section on the product page links to step-by-step guides.
How should I store Turkish spices to keep them fresh? +
Store your spices in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources like stoves. Keep the jars sealed tightly to preserve the natural oils. Properly stored, Turkish spices maintain peak flavor for 12–18 months. You'll know they're still fresh by their vibrant color and aromatic scent when you open the jar.
