Domanda assolutamente seria, mi scuso per la mia miopia, spero che questa non valga come a "basso sforzo"-inviare. Mio marito è tornato a casa ieri con la notizia che il nostro mercato turco locale stava chiudendo e che tutto era scontato del 50%, quindi ha comprato alcune cose a caso. Incuriositi da queste patatine le abbiamo aperte e… uff… uhm… sa di… cibo per cavalli? La cosa più vicina che abbia mai assaggiato sono gli snack al latte in polvere della Mongolia, ma hanno un sapore così strano e straniero che non riesco a descriverlo affatto.
Come si mangia questo? Con cosa lo mangi? Eventuali suggerimenti, spiegazioni, aneddoti culturali sono ben accetti. Non voglio davvero sprecare cibo, ma ho bisogno di aiuto per fare amicizia con questo gusto.

ive never seen that in my whole life
Yeah you just eat it. It’s a niche, local food that not everyone likes in Turkey as well. Ingredients vary by region, so im not sure what your version has in it, but comparing to milky dried mongolian food is accurate. Tarhana has dried yoghurt in it.
Personally it tastes pretty bad
Tarhana one of the most exotic soup recipe in Türkiye anatolia. Yoghurt mixed with some other natural vegetables and spices, and we make it dry under aun than make if like a flour. When we eant to make a soup, we put aome in a biwl and somw water to make it soften. Than we boil it with hot water to make a tarhana soup. Delicious, a little bit sour but so healthy. All natural ingridients. Outlr mothers and villagers makes it so much and stock as dried. You eat chips with some yogurt mixed wuth some spices. Ilso its fermented a little bit, the taste is ugly because of this. But be sure, its healthy originally when you make soup.
It’s a local food from Kahramanmaraş. Even Turks don’t like it much because of its plain taste 😀 Tarhana is made of dough and yogurt, and this chips form of it takes its crispness from sun-drying so you can tell it’s not unhealthy for a chips.
Tarhana is a very very old Turkish food made with grains and yoğurt. They get mixed, fermented & dried under the sun. We consume it as soup normally, but these are chips, meant to be eaten as is. It has a lot of health benefits, but I suppose it’s an acquired taste. A no brainer for us, since we all grew up eating a lot of tarhana soup.
I really love this. I mostly eat it on its own and I leave it out for a bit before eating. It tastes better.u can it with mandarins or walnuts. But if u still don’t like it you can make soup with it
Tarhana is dried, fermented vegetables and wheat, originally made so the vegetables could be preserved for soup-making in winter. This has yogurt added to it, because everyone loves yogurt, and it’s pressed into the form of chips for snacking.
You’d eat it as-is, maybe topped with some soft cheese like halloumi or mozzarella on it. I like it, but I can see how it wouldn’t be for everyone.
I love this…
its a local food from Kahramanmaraş and i really love it
Eat one and you will find out, then tell us..
We eat tarhana like chips in the east, additionally to the soup version of it. After the dinner, people drink tea, eat tarhana with dried nuts (all kinds of) and also with fruits, while watching tv etc. It is a family culture so to say. My fav combo is tarhana + pistachio + tea.
They are an acquired taste. My dad loves them, I don’t. You could try dipping them in yogurt.
I live in Turkey. This is the first time I’ve seen these chips. We eat them as soup, in my city.

Microwaving it for shortly makes them a bit caramelized and soft. My favorite way to eat them.
I just made a soup out of it yesterday. there is a recipe on the package you can check it out. I do not reccomend you to eat it right from the package, it does not taste well 🙂
It made to be eaten like chips. It’s a Kahramanmaraş local snack and we eat it that way but i suggest my friends whom never tried before to wet it and wait a little until it soaks it and they like it that way better.
We make white tarhana soup from this but we use the blue packaging for the soup. (Don’t know the difference my mom buys it) but you can also eat it like chips its good.
I have never eaten it like this, didnt even know it existed, we make sun-dried pellets out of wheat, yoghurt and ground vegetables. Then we just cook it up to have one of the earliest instant soups of humanity. Pretty tasty that way
This one does not taste good. The spicy one, woth red packaging tastes good though, still a bit sour but its like chips.
I would try them with a salsa dip. My favorite tarhana has tomato paste in it and I think the acidity works great with the sourness
Its a local food from Maraş but this particular brand is rather common in Turkey but it tastes much worse than the original local ones that you can only find in Maraş 🙂 It tastes bad for so many at first but ive seen so many of my friends get addicted to it after some time. Ps you can try it with walnut and almond it goes well with’em.
I have a friend from Mersin. I saw these tarhana chips first time when I visited him. And I said, bro what the fuck are you eating? He gave me some and it was pretty good. Maybe you will like it too.
It’s a soup base for a soup called Tarhana, which is a like a Fermented either yoghurt or tomato based soup. This is the yoghurt one which imagine a soup with the tanginess of Sourdough bread and cream.
I like eating this like chips, and it gets better after frying.
