Turkish Spices in Antalya — Pul Biber, Isot and Sumac

Maraş pepper flakes, isot, sumac, thyme, mint, turmeric, rock salt and more. The oily-ground pul biber is kept separate; sweet and hot sit in different buckets. That deep red comes from freshness, not from colouring.

Our herbalist shelf also carries henna, herbal care products and a range of salts. Everything is sold by weight — enough for one dish or a whole kilo. Smell it at the counter before you decide, in Döşemealtı and Kepez.
