Turkish Naturally Dried Mixed Vegetables for Soup & Stews

A ready blend of naturally dried Turkish vegetables that turns a pot of water into a flavorful soup, stew, or pilaf in minutes. A handful goes straight from the pack into the pot — no washing, no peeling, no chopping. The pieces rehydrate as the dish simmers and release the taste, color, and aroma of fresh vegetables, so you get a home-cooked result with almost none of the prep.

The mix is built from the vegetables that form the backbone of Turkish home cooking. A typical blend includes dried tomato, leek, carrot, red (kapya) pepper, onion, and parsley. Because the vegetables are seasonal and dried in batches, the exact proportions and pieces can vary from one harvest to the next — that is normal for a real, naturally dried product rather than a standardized factory mix.

The vegetables are dried, not cooked or processed, which keeps their natural color and concentrates their flavor. There are no additives, no preservatives, and no added salt or flavoring — just vegetables. Drying also makes them shelf-stable, so you can keep a year-round supply of "fresh" vegetable flavor in the cupboard, even out of season.

How to use it: drop a handful into soups, lentil or bulgur dishes, rice and pilaf, sauces, and slow-cooked stews while they simmer, and let the pieces soften and rehydrate in the liquid. It is just as useful as a quick flavor base for ready meals, stocks, and one-pot dinners, or stirred into doughs and savory bakes for a vegetable note. Start with a small amount, since a little expands and goes a long way.

Available in 100g, 250g, and 500g resealable packs. Reseal the pack after each use and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to keep the pieces dry and aromatic.
