Kazandibi

Dating back to the Ottoman times, kazandibi is a Turkish dish that can be translated to burnt bottom pudding, referring to the burnt bottom of the pan that it is cooked in. The dessert consists of butter, milk, rice flour, sugar, starch, and flavorings such as vanilla, rosewater, or ground mastic gum.

In Türkiye, kazandibi is usually served as thin ribbons which are then rolled, although it can also be served in thick squares. The caramelized top of kazandibi gives it an earthy flavor, which contrasts quite nicely with the sweet and milky flavors on the interior.
