Coconut, poppy seed, plain... Damascus dessert greets us with its different varieties. Although they are sometimes compared to revani , they are desserts from different worlds. Unlike revani, Damascus dessert, which is less fluffy and has a more intense flavor, is prepared with baking soda. They are also known as şambali or şambaba. Its origin is unknown, but Mediterranean people love it very much. In the Aegean, it is made as shambali and consumed with pleasure. Its ingredients are indispensable for every kitchen. A mixture of semolina and yoghurt is prepared and placed in the oven. Sherbet is made in a corner and left to rest until it becomes warm. At that moment, delicious smells rise from the oven and our cake turns red like a pomegranate. The sherbet is served slowly as it comes out of the oven. It would not be an exaggeration to say that at this stage, even the sounds and smells could be written for pages. Anyway, let's not interrupt the story. Immediately afterwards, our dessert draws its sherbet. This sweetness permeates every fiber of your body. And some ice cream on the side, maybe some clotted cream... We give you a recipe that guarantees happiness at the first fork you buy.
