The "mystery pickle" is actually an unripe plum. It's also eaten without being pickled, sometimes also with a touch of salt. Crisp, sour and delicious!

[@Sofiakatt]

Is it like omeboshi in Japan?

[@bassam2375]

Sofia omeboshi are plums preserved in salt, whereas what I’m talking about here is just raw unripe plums lightly dipped in salt and eaten straight away or as seen in the video pickled in a solution that usually contains some type of vinegar.

[@Sofiakatt]

@@bassam2375 Thanks for the info.

Actually that much crispiness is not good. You should be able to roll a good lahmacun, not fold it like a napkin. The one in this video looked very dry and flaky

Have never been to Istanbul specifically, but went to Turkey for the fiirst time a few years a go, being Irish I had very few dealings with Turkish people in my life, had no idea about Turkish culture and didn't know what to exepect, but I have to say I loved the country and the people, who could not have been any nicer and more welcoming. It's a great country with lovely people and I'd recommend anyone to visit.

[@YGOrica]

7:58 thats a green plum (called yesil erik in turkish)! You also can find the non pickled version of it on the markets and bazar there. It is sour and often eaten with a little bit of salt.

I went to Istanbul after watching your videos the last time you went. Absolutely loved it 😍. People and food were great and want to go again but being Asian, though from the UK I'm not sure how people will take to us visiting. 😭

[@alpers.6068]

As a Turkish citizen I wouldn't recommend to visit Istanbul these days. Our government has no idea about how to deal with covid-19 and they constantly lying about the numbers. Stay safe : ) nice profile pic. btw.

[@HAUNTERxp]

The mystery pickle at 8:00 is a fruit Turkish people call "erik". In English it's called a "greengage", although many mistake it as an unripe plum.

[@mehmetaliozgunduz5023]

7:58 these are pickled green plums or prunus domestica and yes, it is a fruit. Plums are very popular both when they are ripe and early harvest. The green ones are everywhere during the spring with their sour and tangy taste. They can be founded in every corner. The ripe red ones are a summer delicacy. Turkey is the origin place of plums. It even grows on the streets. Every house with a garden probably has a plum tree in it.

[@subetewomieru]

Grilled red mullet, marinated sea-bass (levrek marin), pickled anchovies, grilled seabream, oven-baked black sea salmon, trout are also mostly preferred seafoods in Turkiye. From Turkish coasts. There are also less strong varieties of raki too. We don't have just one type of rakı.

Hey, Luke's girlfriend! Answering your question regarding the unknown pickle, this is called "Greengage," a very regionally famous subgenre of plums that is eaten either unripe with salt, pickled, or a full-fledged sweet and soury plum. Have fun!

[@bruceburhan]

Hi Luke and Sabrina, Glad you are back in Turkey!! It is one of our favorite destinations (for 24 years now). The round green fruit at the pickle shop in Kadıköy on Güneşlı Bahçe are called Erık. They are a great crispy green plum the Turks love. Up the street from where the pickle shop is, a famous lokata called Çiya Sofrası serves stewed lamb with these plums. They are both sweet, sour, crunchy and delicious.

[@Winter_Roses_Music]

Hey you. Yes, you. You're probably scrolling through the comments, like I am, reading all these motivational comments. If you are reading this at night, you should get some sleep, and don't stress about everything going on in the world, or what you are going through. Don't dwell on things from the past, don't stress on your future. Just live your life, because you only get one. Do whatever makes you happy, not what other people want from you. For me, imma wake up tomorrow morning, maybe get some exercise, and probably play some video games, while I wait for school to start. I think it's pretty boring because of coronavirus, but I know it'll end eventually, and things will start to brighten up. Stay safe, and take a chill pill - some guy on the internet.

[@azrayucel6784]

The round green pickle you had looks like pickled green plum! Green plum is very famous in Turkey

[@DjMiLF]

A fish you should try out in Istanbul is hamsa if you want something “local”, and the fish sandwich at the harbour

[@Tink1881]

That green round pickle is called erik (green plum but it is not sweet) The fresh ones come out in April May and June I believe. I can't tell you how much I miss it. We have some here in Australia but it's a bit too bitter and small. Enjoy.

The green thing in the pickle juice looks like what Persians call “gojeh Sabz”. From what I can gather is it’s a type of plum that is no good when fully ripe so they eat them green (Unripe) and tangy with salt
