Having scoured the eastern Med and Balkans for the definitive take on this delectable stuffed filo snack, our resident perfectionist unveils her ultimate recipe“Few dishes,” according to food writer Zeynep Betul, “embody the spirit of Turkish cuisine as perfectly as börek”. This family of crunchy, flaky pastries in various shapes and fillings are “immensely popular” throughout the country, says award-winning author Özlem Warren: “Even the fussiest child,” she assures readers of her book Özlem’s Turkish Table, “will ask for seconds.”So foundational do börek seem to be to Turkish life that a conservative female politician made headlines a few years ago for a tweet claiming that, if a woman didn’t know how to make them, “her family is doomed to disintegration”. In reality, as others were quick to point out, though börek aren’t difficult to prepare (and, with practice, perfect), many Turkish women, as well as men, choose to buy them instead, without obvious domestic repercussions.

4 h. ago The Spin | Off the scent: how Atherton and Katich thrived in cricket without all senses intact

The season’s onset brings a host of evocative smells, which two esteemed players have never been able to savourOn the weekend, a friend and I went walking. As we strolled along the River Goyt, a sweet smell hit us like a packet of Love Hearts, which, as it turns out, is pretty much what it was. We had inadvertently walked past the Swizzels factory – producer of Parma Violets, Rainbow Drops and more in the Sett Valley since the company moved out of blitzed London in 1940, to an old textile mill in New Mills, Derbyshire.Alongside the sugary cloud drifted a junk shop of memories, sweets handed out at jelly and ice-cream parties, shared on the curb outside the corner shop, sucked on the way home from school. Later on, we passed a man pushing a mower to and fro on his front lawn and that fresh hit set off a whole other chain of flashbacks. As a cricket lover, you probably know where this is going.

Pizza, but not as you know it, featuring mushrooms, potatoes, cheese and greens on a crunchy cornbread base, plus a rice pudding treat baked into pastry squares for aftersWhy should pizza and focaccia get to have all the fun? Cornbread, with its subtle sweetness, golden hue and earthy flavour, is a welcoming canvas for the kinds of toppings that more commonly adorn Italian flatbreads.
