We continued eating our way through Cappadocia with a lot of lamb and chicken kebabs and pastries filled with cheese. We had a delicious lunch on the day tour we booked through our hotel but I don't remember the names of anything. There was a delicious barley dish and a dessert made with semolina flour along with chicken kebabs that were all wonderful. All together we had about 6 or 8 dishes.
The best thing we found was something called a testi kebab. The chicken (or lamb or vegetables) was cooked with peppers, tomatoes, broth, and spices in an earthernware pot. The pot is sealed off with bread. To get to your food you have to break the pot open. Then you can break the bread off the top of the pot and dip it in kebabs and broth on your plate. I wonder what would happen if I tried to bake that in my oven at home.
