While some collect madımak for daily consumption, others prepare preserves to consume during the winter months. Yalçın Kaygusuz, who came to Büyükincirli village from Ankara, stated that collecting wild thyme is almost a tradition for them, saying, "We came here to collect wild thyme. We also came to visit the graves. We normally live in Ankara. It's been about half an hour now. If we collect for another hour, I think three households will be able to cook a meal each, and we'll sit and eat it as a family. We'll satisfy our longing. Some people make preserves or dry it to eat in the winter, but we can't collect that much. And of course, we'll buy flatbread from here. It's not a meal without flatbread." Tülay Durak, who was collecting wild thyme in Sarıhacılı neighborhood of Yozgat, stated that wild thyme is a laborious but very delicious dish, saying, "It grows in late March. All the villagers come here to collect it. Some go to the fields, some collect it here. We clean it, sort it, and finely chop it with a cleaver on a round board. We add garlic, butter, and pastrami, cook it, and eat it. Tomato paste is not added to it. It's like spinach, but it's very delicious. It goes very well with flatbread. We also make preserves for the winter. The people of Yozgat love it very much." #news #breakingnews #currentaffairs ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Our IHA Aktüel Channel, where we bring you expert opinions on many frequently asked questions 👇 📌 https://bit.ly/IHA-Aktuel Ihlas News Agency Official Website 🌐 http://www.iha.com.tr Follow us on Social Media! 📍   / iha.com.tr   📍   / ihacomtr   📍   / ihacomtr   📍 https://t.me/ihacomtr 📍   / ihacomtr   To contact us 👇 🌐 https://www.iha.com.tr/iletisim
