    This recipe is from the Gaziantep region but it is a widely known dessert. In some regions it is served sprinkled with molasses or icing sugar instead of diluted sugar, and rose water is sprinkled before serving. Equal portions of wheat and corn starch should be used. In summer months, crushed ice is put in the dessert bowls.
