About Tulumba

Tulumba is a popular dessert in Turkish and Middle Eastern cuisines, made from a simple dough consisting of flour, eggs, butter, and water. The dough is piped into small, ridged oblong shapes, deep-fried until golden, and then soaked in a sugar syrup for a rich, sweet flavor. Originating in Ottoman-era kitchens, Tulumba is a beloved treat commonly enjoyed after meals or with tea. While Tulumba provides quick energy due to its high sugar and carbohydrate content, it is not considered a healthy option when consumed frequently. The deep-frying process contributes to its high calorie and fat content, while the syrup adds significant sugar. For those monitoring their diet, Tulumba is best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence rather than a regular part of meals.
