Tekrar hoşgeldiniz 👀

Welcome back to my blog guys !! What will we discuss this time? What kind of food is it? Ok, we will discussed about "Turkey Chicken" and little about its history. Turkey is a poultry of the order Galliformes genus Meleagris which was first discovered in America by Europeans. Turkey's name itself comes from the misunderstanding of the Europeans who mistakenly recognized it as an African bird Numida meleagris, also known as "turkey chicken" because it was imported from Central Europe through Turkey. Whereas the name of the turkey itself is derived from the Dutch spelling "Kalkoen" taken from the name "Kalikut" in India.

Turkish people usually process this chicken by baking it. served for big events, even religious events. Just like Mubarak day in Turkey, these chickens are roasted and enjoyed with large families and neighbors.
