In Doy’s garden

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

Kaymak is thick clotted cream skimmed from slowly heated milk, traditionally water buffalo milk from Afyon or Istanbul's Eyüp. It is a Turkish breakfast luxury, eaten with honey on bread and served with desserts like künefe.

It is mostly milk fat, so a heaped spoon with honey adds up quickly; weighing once shows your usual.
