Tarihi Ismail'in Has Ekmek Firini
It was established in 1840, making it one of the oldest bakeries in Istanbul, Turkey.
The size of the oven, the amount of bread, and the method that heats the room where the dough is prepared are all fascinating.
One of the artisans, Mr. Fahri, a baker, taught us about the bakery, the state of bakeries in Turkey, and their history.
Why Turkey?
1. Turkey is the world's largest bread consumer
The annual bread consumption per capita was recognized as a Guinness World Record in 2000 with 199.6 kg per capita per year.
2. Turkey is considered to be one of the birthplaces of bread.
The ancient Mesopotamian civilization gave birth to bread. Southeastern Turkey is part of that civilization.

The bakers trade is a tough "calling". I know being a retired baker by trade myself. These are men of the highest order, that feed Turkey's working poor's appetite for good bread. They are the pride of that country!

[@necatmutlu5327]

Let me give you some information about Turkish breads. During the Ottoman period, it produced two types of bread: round, long and thin. A cross was drawn on the round bread to indicate that this bread was made in a Christian bakery. The customers of this bread were mostly Christians. Thin and long bread, on the other hand, was cut with a thin line from top to bottom, like the letter elif, the first letter of the Arabic alphabet. This was also known as Muslim bread. They were made the same but tasted different, then everything got mixed up and the values were forgotten.

[@edwardpnts]

Wow….. Incredible from every aspect, dedicated, hard worker’s The bread looks so delicious! I live in the USA….. A large majority of our society would not be able to bare the weigh of the stories being told. The displacement in another country alone would have crushed me. Learning a new language and culture is an incredible accomplishment. Bless your hearts and that may you find joy in your life. Truly an awesome example on why life should be appreciated. Thank you!❤

「選べる食べ物がない。」 日本も遠い未来ではないのかも知れません。 自然と繋がり、日々の糧をつくるという尊い仕事から、低賃金や重労働を理由に人が離れていく現実はどこかおかしい。 「あり過ぎる問題」を抱えながらも、食べていくため、生きていくために働き続ける職人としての圧倒的な覚悟と強度。 遠い地で市井の人々のためにパンを焼く彼らの姿は、私たちの思い描く幸福なそれではないのかも知れないけれど、その所作やあの大きな窯から生まれ出るパンたちは本当に美しく生命に溢れているように感じます。 こうした方達の営みに光を当て、伝えて頂けることを感謝するとともに、これからの渡邊さんの活動の一助となれましたら嬉しいです。

[@reiyawatanabe]

ありがとございます。「パンの製造舞台裏」という小さな窓からでもたくさんの問題や人間模様が見えてきて、それは簡単に線引きできないグラデーションを持ったもののように感じています。今の僕には伝えることしかできませんが、中村哲さんが残された平和には現実的な力が必要、という言葉が胸に響いています。

[@raulsanchez1079]

Muy interesante, se ven los panaderos muy contentos, son bromistas. El pan se ve de mucha calidad, hacen un pan perecido al birote de Guadalajara México, la panadería muy ordenada y limpia, los felicito porque tienen un excelente producto que la gente compra con gusto.

[@user-lm1gm7ep9e]

とても興味深く拝見しました！ アフガニスタン人の方々はトルコで本当に身近な存在です。 そして、日本人だと分かると中村哲氏の話になります🙏 カッパドキアのフルンはほぼ全店薪で焼いていると思います。 天然ガスが引けてからまだ10年経っていないし、ガス代が高いからだと思います。 マヤは何を使っているのか訊いておきます。

[@reiyawatanabe]

見てくださりありがとうございます！ 彼らの話を聞くと改めて中村さんがやられてきたことの偉大さに気がつきます。ウクライナ戦争で小麦だけではなくガス代も飛躍的に上がっているという話もあり、薪の重要性が増しそうですね。マヤはどこもおそらくエキシマヤではないと思われます。

[@martinalzugaray]

Hermoso video, muchas gracias por compartir. No importa en que parte del mundo estes, todos los panaderos trabajamos de la misma forma y tenemos mucho amor por lo que hacemos!!!

Many polish families making bread at home. Historical we used PŁASKURKA, ancient grain. And ofc sourdough is main ingridient. Making sourdough is simple as hell. Make bread - not dead \m/ 😜

What are those flatbreads at 9:25 and what are they used for?

[@ayseylmaz5024]

They are called pide. Especially in ramadan month they are stable at dinner times. But in some bakeries you can find them year around.

[@bothcu7822]

Ramazan pidesi (Turkish for Ramadan pita) is a traditional soft leavened Turkish bread. Round and rather flat in form, and having a weave-like patterned crust, Ramazan pidesi is made of wheat flour with yeast, and topped with sesame and Nigella sativa seeds. It is traditionally served for the iftar and sahur meals during the holy month of Ramadan.

[@EmirErcanAyar1]

They are called "Ramadan Pita" (Turkish: "Ramazan Pidesi") It's produced only during Ramadan month in a year. Otherwise, it's so rarely to find it anywhere. It's used as a bread as a side-dish; but as a replacement to a typical bread during the Ramadan month. It's like a treat for Turkish people at the end of the day; when they finish their daily Ramadan fisting.
