Meadow Foxtail Roasting is a traditional dish from Aydın, made from the young shoots of meadow foxtail, a wild plant that grows abundantly in the region. The shoots are sautéed with onions, garlic, and olive oil, and sometimes combined with eggs or yogurt, creating a simple yet flavorful dish. Meadow Foxtail Roasting is typically enjoyed as a side dish or as part of a larger meal, reflecting Aydın’s tradition of using wild, foraged ingredients in cooking. This dish is particularly popular in rural areas, where the plant is harvested in the spring and valued for its fresh, green flavor.
