Turkish dessert crepe filled with walnuts From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Şıllık is a Turkish dessert crepe that is a specialty of the southeastern Urfa province.[1] It is a thin dough made of milk and flour, similar to a crepe, filled with ground walnuts and topped with simple syrup and chopped pistachio.[2] Some versions of the filling may include a mix of walnut and pistachio.[3] Butter or Turkish grape molasses may optionally be added to the simple syrup sauce. Traditionally, lamb tail fat was used to fry the crepes.[4] In Turkish the word şıllık means slut or hussy, so some women in the conservative province of Urfa are not comfortable ordering the dessert by name, preferring instead to allow a male relative to order it for them or simply asking for "that dessert".[5]
