Kandil simidi

Kandil simidi is a salty variant of the Turkish simit pastry which is eaten during the Kandil religious holiday.

It is ring-shaped and coated in sesame seeds, and is sometimes flavoured with mahlep.

During the five nights of Kandil, these pastries are baked and offered to neighbours and relatives.
