Red Prune Syrup

Red prunes are a great source for vitamin C. Prunes are also effective in detoxication and regulating the menstrual cycle. So as you have guessed I here present you a recipe of prunes, red prune syrup. Don't misunderstand when I say syrup, this a wonderful homemade alternative to fruit juice. It's perfectly refreshing when you drink it cold on long summer days.

Yayik Ayrani (Diluted and churned yoghurt)

Everyone loves ayran around here. You can drink it with meals and as a refreshment on its own. It is actually very easy to make. Stir a few tablespoons of yoghurt in a bowl and add some water to dilute it and voila! You have ayran. You can change the amount of water as you like. I myself prefer it thick, some like it runny with a lot of water. You can also add a pinch of salt. Try it as you like. This is the simple version of ayran, but here I would like to give you a more old fashioned bubbly and creamy recipe, as you can see in the picture. This recipe is a modern version of the old fashion churning method. Since it's hard to find and use churns, here we have a modern recipe by Ayhan Demiral where we can get the same taste.
