About Borekas
Borekas are savory pastries originating from the cuisines of the Ottoman Empire, particularly popular in Turkey, the Balkans, and the Middle East. These flaky treats are typically made with phyllo or puff pastry dough and stuffed with a variety of fillings, such as cheese, potatoes, spinach, or ground meat. While their rich, buttery layers make them delicious, they are often high in fat, refined carbohydrates, and sodium, especially depending on the filling. However, Borekas can also provide some nutritional benefits, such as calcium and protein from cheese or fiber and vitamins from vegetable fillings like spinach or potatoes. Traditionally enjoyed as snacks or appetizers, they are best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
