About Turkish sojuk

Turkish sujuk is a dry, spicy sausage made from ground beef or lamb, seasoned with a robust blend of spices like garlic, cumin, paprika, and sumac. Originating from Turkey and popular across the Middle East and the Balkans, it is a staple in Turkish cuisine, celebrated for its rich flavor and versatility. Sujuk is typically air-dried, which concentrates its taste, and it’s often pan-fried, grilled, or used as a topping for dishes like eggs or pide. While sujuk is high in protein and offers a flavorful source of energy, it is also rich in saturated fats and sodium, which may not be ideal for those watching their intake of these nutrients. Enjoyed in moderation, sujuk can add a delightful depth of flavor to various meals, offering a taste of authentic Turkish gastronomy.
