In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of potatoes sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Ayran is yogurt whisked with cold water and a pinch of salt into a frothy, slightly sour drink. It is the classic partner to kebabs, döner, pide and lahmacun, and comes in cups and bottles everywhere in Turkey.

Homemade ayran depends on the yogurt: full-fat yogurt and less water make a thicker glass with higher numbers.
