Golda Butter Bollos – Boyoz 60g, 1.06lb (480gr), 10pack - PSG07

Boyoz, which means “bundle” in the Sephardic Ladino language, is a popular Turkish snack that is sold in bakery shops and by street vendors in Izmir. This Turkish town has been famous for the boyoz pastry and for other Sephardic desserts since the 1500s when the Sephardic Jews fled oppression in Spain and came to settle in Turkey. The boyoz pastry was traditionally prepared only by Jewish bakers, but this custom has changed in recent times, and the pastry is now made and eaten by all Turkish communities.

In Turkish cuisine, the boyoz pastry is generally eaten for breakfast and with hard-boiled eggs and a strong tea. The pastry may be plain or may have a variety of cheese, vegetables, or meat fillings.
