Pashmak is Turkey’s delicious alternative to classic cotton candy. Meaning ‘little wool’ in Persian, Pashmak is made from sesame and sugar and accompanies fruit, cake and ice cream.
With a variety of flavors to choose from, pashmak lends itself well to most desserts, and its whimsical appearance is perfect for Holiday entertaining. Gourmet Traveler has an excellent pashmak recipe that involves labne (strained yogurt), milk pudding and apricot. It’s delicious with fresh fruit, cookies… or on its own!
Purchase pashmak at Pariya.com, a Persian produce website. Based in Australia, the company sources all of their food from Iran and features a wealth of traditional Persian food including raahat and pistachio, rose petal and citron Turkish delights.
