  • Today we're making the legendary Turkish Black Sea pide. Yes, you are DEFINITELY familiar with the look - it's a type of pizza (but definitely not pizza) that is a specialty of the Black Sea region of Turkey, and, yes, it's absolutely as delicious as it looks. Come join us in today's episode where we're going to be making a variety of pides that Bahar and Burak requested, and bringing you a plate of deliciousness 😍 Enjoy!

    • Mix the water, sugar and yeast in a cup. Let the mixture sit for 3 minutes.
    • Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a hole in the centre. Add in the butter and yeast mixture.
    • Mix with a wooden spatula until the mixture is no longer sticky. Knead by folding the dough onto itself for a couple of minutes
    • Transfer the dough on your counter and knead for about 6-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
    • Divide the dough into 7 lumps, each will be around 120 g. To shape each dough into balls, press on the dough with your palm and roll it. Press gently with your thumb to push it inwards and use your other fingers to roll it. Release the pressure slowly while the dough is getting rounder.
    • Dust a tray with flour and place the dough balls in it. Dust them again and cover with a damped kitchen cloth.
    • Let the dough rise for 40-45 minutes at room temperature or 30 minutes in a warm place.
    • Meanwhile, heat your oven to 280 C (535 F) and place a tray into the top shelf upside down. You can also prepare the filling while the dough is resting.
    • Dust your work surface and roll out each dough ball to 40 cm (16 in) length, 12-15 cm width (5-6 in) and 2-3 mm (1/10) thick with a rolling pin. Roll out rounder and wider, around 20 cm (7-8 in), if making pide with egg.
    • Transfer the dough onto a pizza peel and shake off the excess flour.
    • To make the Pide with kaşar cheese, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Place the halved tomatoes and peppers on top. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is crisp on the bottom. Then transfer the pide to the tray, which is already on a higher rack. Bake for another 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking.
    • To make the Pide with kaşar and egg, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is crisp on the bottom. Then place the peppers, crack the egg and sprinkle the red pepper flakes on top and bake for another 2 minutes on the tray, which is already in a higher rack. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking.
    • To make the Pide with meat (Kuşbaşılı), place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Spread the mixture on top. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.

    • To make the Pide with pastırma and sucuk, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Place the pastırma, sucuk, green pepper and red pepper flakes on top. You can dice the sucuk and pastırma, if you like. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is a crisp on the bottom. Then transfer the pide to the tray, which is already in a higher rack. Bake for another 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking. Garnish with parsley leaves.
    • To make the Pide with white cheese, place the cheese on top of the dough and spread it evenly, leaving a 2-3 cm (1 in) gap by the edge. Place the spring onion, parsley, nigella seeds, red pepper flakes and cured meat on top. Fold the empty sides over the filling and pinch both ends together. Brush away the excess flour.
    • Slide the pide into the bottom of the oven and bake for 4-5 minutes until it is crisp on the bottom. Then transfer the pide to the tray, which is already in a higher rack. Bake for another 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Grease the pide with butter during the last 30 seconds of baking.
    • Your crispy, freshly baked, madly delicious pides are ready. I highly recommend you enjoy with your choice of popular pide accompaniment - ayran (a cold savoury yogurt-based drink), şalgam (fermented turnip and black carrot juice) or Turkish black tea.

    In 2019 I travelled to Istanbul and Bodrum for the first time. It was the best trip I've ever taken. Then, during October 2020, I got really bored in California and decided to take trip to Bodrum for 3 weeks. This was the best 3 weeks of my 60 years on this planet! What I experienced was the warmth, hospitality, friendliness, culture and the absolute best food like Rafika's dishes.
    Rafika is what your average Turk is like. Nice, warm, inviting and a true representative of her nation. It's obvious that because of her videos, I am now approximately 40 pounds heavier and I have to fight my wife over who gets to cook. I've replicated her Adana Kebab and several other dishes and everyone around me thinks I'm some sort of professional chef! I then bring up her videos and show them where I learned it. Thank you Refika for these videos. I am now in process of preparing to make my move to Turkey (Bodrum) as a retiree and can't wait till I get there!
    LOVE IT!

    Holy moly. I just made this & it’s soooo tasty!! Thank you Refika!
    I grew up eating pides & gozlemes in Sydney, Australia.
    I have so many memories of waking up & waiting until the Turkish restaurant down the road would open at 9:30am & grabbing some for breakfast for me & my mum. I didn’t realize it but that shaped so much of my preferences for food later in life.
    Living in America now, easy access to Turkish food is something I miss so much from Australia. And now I just made the tastiest pides in my kitchen!
    Thank you so much!!

    Waaayyyy back in 1954 to 1958 I lived in Ankara (ages 7 to 11) - and loved it. I am so happy to find so many of the foods that I miss from that time on your show. Also I am amazed how much of the Turkish language is coming back to me just watching your show. My family would come up to Istanbul for various events and we would stay at the Hilton. My parents took me once to the Topkapi Museum and it made an indelible impression on me. But of course the simit, salt crusted pistachios also stuck there too. Nothing is better than Turkish street food! Food flavors seemed to be more intense over there. Thank you for a wonderful show. Keep on no matter what.

In the past, all the Turkish food that I have enjoyed has been from a restaurant. We have made several of your recipes and last week I made pide and milk helva all by myself and everyone who was here loved it. You made it look so easy that I felt confident that I could make it. My nieces helped make a few as well and we made various combinations with ingredients we had on hand. My favorite was cheese, peppers and tomato. Thank you for sharing. When I come to visit Turkey I am going to look you up to thank you.

    Turkish food is my favourite.
    Now you are my favourite chef.
    Seeing your happy face, hearing you laugh and how the team interact with you is amazing.
    It brings back many happy times I have had with Turkish people.
    Genuine, friendly and good feeders of an amazing array of vegetables, fish, lamb, tomatoes but my favourite is the Aubergine.
    Best wishes Refica and all the team
    When I see the food & hear you all laugh, you bring my favourite place which is Kalkan and very happy memories.
    I am truly grateful for that.

    Due to COVID-19 neither I nor my beloved could visit each other in the country where we live so we met halfway in Turkey back in October. I love Turkish food before going but the two weeks we spent in Istanbul were amazing. I loved these “pizzas” (I don’t actually eat 🍕 normally)!! I can see why after being there my love had traveled to Turkey several times in the past. The people, the immense history, the sights to see and the food were all amazing. I even showed him the kofta video of you and Alex while there. ☺️

    I’ve made Pides before . But two days ago I made your version for iftar . I especially loved the feta combination . I have never had it in pide or pizza before, and it was surprisingly delicious 😊
    I also made one with sundried tomatoes peppers , Mozarella and parmesan . Equally tasty!
    I made 4 extra large ones the diagonal length of the baking sheet . They were so good my children didn’t want to eat their rice and curry after said they were full .
    This recipe is a keeper along with your channel! Thank you !

    I have so many students from Turkey....lovely people. Today I tried to make Yufka flat Bread...Maybe not perfect but it came out great to my taste. Turkey has inspired me to learn more about your cuisine which is absolutely delicious!!! I'll try Pide for sure!!! You are such an adorable and high-spirited woman. I'm grateful I came across your Channel. Thank you so much for sharing!!!😘

    I have made this many times in numerous variations. Hubs said it was better than pizza & I should SELL them. LOL! Super thin crispy crust. I only have a NuWave countertop oven and they came out PERFECTLY. Thank you Refika for turning us on to Pide! FOOD OF THE GODS!

    This has become one of my favorite quick dinners to fix, I like to mince up garlic and olives and line the edges of my dough so that the garlic and olives or sometimes mushrooms get rolled into the edges. In fact, I have my dough resting and waiting on the counter right now. This dough recipe is so versatile, I use this recipe at least three times a week I don't even buy bread or pitas in the store anymore, I just make my own now

But most of all, I come to hang out and visit with you and your crew. I feel like we are all old friends and you have no idea how much all of you helped me through the Corona quarantine. My husband and I literally stayed in the house for one year, without visitors. You were my family during this tough time. I love each of you. Thank you for the amazing food, the laughs and the educational bits. You are truly amazing and beautiful. Warm hugs from Graham Washington. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    You bring a lot of joy to our days, and watching you eating makes everyone here hungry. Keep up with the good work! Cheers

  • @susansmith7076

    I live in Canada. My late mother-in-law was Turkish. She made incredible food! I have tried to make many of her dishes. I know what to do, but nothing comes out the same as hers. An international problem, I guess. But: can you teach me to make real gozleme? I LOVE it for a light meal anytime. My other request would be for my mother-in-law's tas kebab with lamb and fresh peas. She massaged the lamb and chopped onions with tomato paste and some seasoning, then added the peas and cooked everything on a pan underneath an upside-down bowl. She poured hot water around the edges of the bowl -- not too much, so the eventual sauce was all meat and vegetable juice. Oh, YUM. Thank you for all your cheery, life-enhancing episodes!

    Made this tonight for the first time and IT WAS INCREDIBLE!!!! The dough was very easy to make, and we used basil, tomatoes, pepperoni, peppers, eggs, and a spicy lamb sausage for toppings. Will definitely be making this again with a set of friends over for dinner.

We did ours with super reduced and caramelized onions with garlic as a spread, then on that we put 3 different cured meats, and then mozzarella with diced sun-dried tomatoes, hot pepper flakes, and fresh thyme on top. It was soo friggin good! AND THE SMELL 🤤🤤 😍 Thank you for sharing your delicious recipes! ❤️❤️
