Turkish cuisine is one of the ancient and diverse cuisines, and just as Turkish culture has spread in its forms in many countries of the world, Turkish food also attracts many. The old Ottoman Empire influenced many countries, so don't be surprised if some of your recipes come from Turkish cuisine. Many Turkish cuisine recipes also come from the Middle East and Arab countries in particular by virtue of their long stay among the Arabs. You will notice that Turkish cuisine is influenced by European countries as well.
These influences vary according to different cities, we find the influences of Arab cuisine evident in southern cities such as Gaziantep and Mardin, while European influences are evident in the Black Sea regions. The influences of Ottoman traditions are evident in Istanbul, Bursa and Izmir.
