Outline of kadayif

Term kadayif (Turkish: kadayıf) is used to describe a variety of pastry desserts in the Turkish cuisine, including the actual confections and unfinished intermediate products like dough.[1] An Arabic dessert made of similar dough is the knafeh.[2] While the word kadayif comes from Arabic qatayef linguistically, there is little overlap between the actual Arabic qatayef and Turkish kadayif desserts.[2] Kadayif as a generic name for a group of pastry desserts can be found in the cookbook Melceü't-Tabbâhîn (1844).[3]

  • Unfinished products include:
    • Kadayif flour, a special flour made from the bisquit class wheat;[4]
    • Wire kadayif, also known as tel kadayif[5] and string kadayif,[2] is a vermicelli-like,[2] semi-processed product made by mixing wheat flour and water, cooked and optionally fried;[4][6]
    • Tray kadaif (TS 10344), per Turkish standard 10344/T2,[7] is a semi-processed (baked) water and flour mix product.[8] Tray kadaif can also refer to a finished product (see below);
    • Başar & Boz[6] mention lean kadayif and yufka kadayif. "Yufka" means "thin" and, at the same time, can be used to refer to filo dough.
