جيفرك (سميت مخبوز مرتين)

Gevrek, also known as twice-baked simit, is a popular snack in Turkey, particularly in Izmir. This circular bread is made from dough coated with molasses and sesame seeds before being baked twice to achieve a crunchy texture. Gevrek is similar to simit, but its unique baking process gives it a crispier exterior while maintaining a soft interior. It is typically enjoyed with tea, cheese, and olives, making it a staple of Turkish breakfast and street food culture. The rich, nutty flavor of the sesame seeds combined with the slightly sweet taste of molasses makes gevrek a beloved treat among locals and visitors alike.
