Leave a comment on this blog by Wednesday November 23 to win$20 worth of vouchers to purchase some Turkish Bread!
I went to Turkey just over 12 months ago and fell in love with the place. The culture was amazing, the architecture was stunning and the people were very friendly. The thing I loved most about Turkey was the food. Eggs and tomato for breakfast, meatballs for lunch, a kebab for dinner and followed by Turkish delight for dessert – this I miss. One thing that I know I can still get my hands on without leaving the country is Turkish Bread.
(Some of the restaurants in Istanbul)
The Turkish Bread still gives me as much enjoyment now back in Australia as it did in Turkey. This is partly because I have realised how versatile the bread is and keep discovering new ways of using it.
Although I’m not much of a sharing person, Turkish Bread is ideal for when friends come around for a drink. It is a perfect accompaniment to dips and really brings out the flavour – my favourite dip is a chunky basil and pesto. It’s so easy to slice up and share. When there are leftovers (if there’s any), they are never gone to waste.
With the Spring Carnival Season now in full flight in Melbourne, I’ve been able to enjoy heaps of nibblies. I think by now my friends would realise that this is my staple item when attending a barbecue – and I’m not ashamed by my lack of variety because I know how much this is enjoyed by everyone else.
The Turkish bread at Bakers Delight is made from an ancient old recipe using polish dough. It is baked fresh on stone after a 20 hour process of fermenting and resting, so it has a full of flavour and has an open texture. It still has a strong Turkey-feel about it with the olive oil pasted on it from Turkey. This is what makes it taste so good.
I find that I can use Turkish bread in so many different ways; use a Turkish Bread Roll to make a focaccia, slice open Turkish Bread and make mini-pizzas, cut up small pieces and make toast with scrambled eggs, or even just as a side dish to a bowl of pasta.
My favourite way to have Turkish Bread is to make a focaccia with my favourite fillings: Grilled chicken breast, tomato, capsicum, lettuce, zucchini and cheese.
As it is such tasty bread, there are so many ways to enjoy it. For your chance to win $20 worth of vouchers, tell us how you best enjoy your Turkish Bread.

Superb bread ,turkish bread is the best and great to make pizzas on

I like mine toasted with lamb slices (that have been marinated in oregano, lemon and olive oil then grilled), grilled haloumi and char grilled capsicum. Yummo!
I love Turkish bread. It’s great splitting it in half and toasting till golden with butter and vegemite yum. Thanks for all the info about this yummy bread!
Turkish bread dipped in your favorite chunky dip and pesto also opened with scrambled egg for breakie topped with slithers of salmon
When I tried real turkish bread in Europe it was incredibly addicting and authentic to its name and culture and I find that Bakers Delight Turkish bread is similar in morals as it produces sometimes the equal taste of the original bread!
Thanks for making my trip to the bread store diverse in options and reassurance of quality with rich aromas and a to die for taste
i l
ike the bread you bake because it is cooked every day. and you have some different ones.
Toasted, with loadsa butter and plunged liberally into whatever dip I can find.
I enjoy it with pumpkin, grilled eggplant, salt reduced feta, capsicum and my mums
Homemade basil and hummus paste.
I enjoy eating it plain as as. mmmm
I LIKE the way the bread is made with care
Cut in half, lightly toasted and filled with chicken, lettuce, cheese and lots of mayo. mmmmm yumm
Wait until the kids are in bed and have lovely warm turkish bread toasties with cream cheese, avocado and freshly picked roma tomatos from our vege garden- heaven!
Congratulations Anna, you are the winner of the vouchers! This definitely sounds a great way to enjoy Turkish Bread.
Brie, spinach and smoked salmon. Yum!
MMMMMMM … fresh bread !!!!!
Roast chicken, honey roast ham, mayonnaise and avocado.
Yum! grilled with avocado and vintage cheese, taco spice!
Tapenade, roast beetroot, spinach and fetta.
I love toasted garlic Turkish bread – yummy yummy!
Turkish bread served warm with some fresh dukkah, quality balsamic vinegar and olive oil dip. Simple and great, it perfectly captures the best of the bread!
Quite simply divine…. especially when served with a glass of red wine, and shared with your nearest and dearest.
I am so deprived, I have never ever tried turkish bread – would love the opportunity to do so !!
Topped with all my favourite pizza toppings & then grilled. Awesome. Loving the Turkish Bread & loving that the Arana Hills, Qld store is now open again!
LOOOOOVE Turkish Bread, especially grilled on the BBQ and topped with Haloumi, rocket, bacon and hollandaise sauce, YUMMO!
Turkish bread toasted in the oven with garlic butter…..
Simple and the best way to make garlic bread ….
My local BD had this a few weeks ago and had samples which they served with hommus. I was hooked and buy the Turkish bread regularly Slice and fill with salads, and cold meats – whatever we have on hand and they always are amazing We sometimes lightly toast the inside and don’t forget the hommus!! We even use it to make pizza, the flavour is just so good.
Whilst I subsitute it with everything I usually would use bread for , I particularly enjoy these two reciepes the most:
Turkish bread spead with garlic & olive oil, lightly toasted, fresh chopped tomotoes, red onion, chopped pieces of avocado, fresh basil, touch of coriander , ground pepper & salt, and finished with a drizzled of balsamic vinegar. Perfect lunch option but I tend to eat anytime of the day.
I also love to use the turkish bread when making a dip platter. I use it fresh mostly and enjoy it with a spinach and ricotta dip made as follows:
frozen spinach, thawed, fresh ricotta, carton sour cream, chopped chives, 30g packet spring vegetable dried soup, finely chopped red onion. but tend to add it to all my platters perfect with kalamata olives, roasted capscium or any other anitpasto or cheese.
Its definately a winner with the kids. Thanks a million for all the varieties and fresh options you continue to make. Awesome.
Turkish Bread is so yummy !!!
Turkish, toasted, with cheerful cheese, heavenly ham, talented tomato and magical mayonnaise!

Turkish bread is just awesome. It goes with so many things: soups, curries, tomato salsa, olive tapenade, even jam!! Toasted, not toasted, with a posh meal or at a BBQ, with a spread or totally on it’s own. It is great. Love it.
All your breads are just scrumptious – can’t get enough of them.
Simply ripped up, and loaded with fresh homemade or handmade dips from the local market.
Slice in half, lightly toast, spread favourite salsa on one side, spread other side with a good quality mayo, add cooked chicken breast or cooked steak, top with cooked onion, tomato, lettuce (any type or mix), tasty cheese, your favourite extras e.g. beetroot, avocado, olives. Slice and serve. Delicious
Fantastic cut into strips with your favourite dip or dukkah. We love spicy pumpkin, beetroot with horseradish and cream cheese or hummus. Another yummy snack

Bakers Delight is like Magic..I bring home all the goodies then it disappears..So Bakes Delgiht is Magic
Mmm I love Turkish bread! It’s awesome when it’s served warm and toasted as a dipping bread
to be honest i like it best sweet.i use it as base for the following desert:
place some turkish bread at the bottom of a ramekin,top it with canned blueberries(after thickening them with cornflour) and top it of with some instant vanilla pudding.5 min in fridge-done!
ok so this is going to sound really weird and gross to most but here goes. The ONLY way to eat bakers delight turkish bread is as follows (its nicknamed jess’ jaff so here goes). Fresh turkish bread with plenty of avocado, a thin layer of vegemite (yep i said vegemite), hommus dip, chunky basil pesto, baked beans, jarlsberg cheese slices and tasty cheese pieces!! Yep everything all together and mixed up. It can get quite messy as you can imagine with melted cheese and dip spewing out everywhere but thats the best part as you can scrape that off as it cooks and scoff it. You must eat it RED HOT and totally cooked through so cheese melts perfectly. I know it sounds bizarre but dont judge it til you try it go on i dare ya!!! AND it would not be possible without the thick gorgeous bakers turkish bread. Go on give it a try i dare ya!!!!!
Went Turkey 2 years back and it was amazing. Your bread brings back wonderful Turkish memories! Thank you~!
Love love love Bakers Delight ! Bread, scrolls, scones, – everything.
Bakers Delight and Turkisn Bread … magic combination!
I like to slice the Turkis bread thinly brush it with garlic and rosemary infused virgin olive oil then crisp the slices in a low oven, we usually enjoy them with home made olive tapenade , Baba ganoush, and oven roasted Capsicm, of course we need a old glass of Chardonay to go with it , for my mixed cheeses we love bakers delight crunchy Sour Dough stick ..MMMmmmmmm you indeed have the secret recipe to making DOUGH!!!!
Bakers Delight turkish bread served hot from the oven covered in crushed garlic and sesame seeds! Goes well as a stand alone snack or with pasta, stews, soups or even dips. Yummy!
I love the smell when I walk pass our local Baker’s Delight store….
All the bread is fantastic and love it when i can give to my children a variety – one loves the country grain and other can only have the white block as it doesnt have any preservative etc that affect her. I just wish our local store would open up again – must be doing renovations or something as its been shut for over 2 weeks so far and my kids need bread for school lunches
. Otherwise we LOVE bakers delight, always fresh bread.

I love the turkish bread with ham, onion, capsicum, a selection of cheeses (range from feta, cheddar, mozzarella etc), pizza sauce and tomatoes, grilled until cheese is goldern. Sounds pretty plain but i love it
Simple is the best as the bread is so beautiful I don’t like to load alot on it. Toasted turkish bread with butter and home made jam. I could live on it. Oh and with a coffee at a cafe. Oh and with my husband and my baby. Perfect!
Anyway is Turkish Delightful !!
Slices of pepperoni topped with cheese then cooked in sandwich griller. Yummo!
I’m from Turkey therefore turkish bread is my favourite. I split in half and top it with some smoked salmon, sliced capsicum, tomatoes and grated cheese on top. put it in the over for about 5-10 minutes…yummy…
I enjoy it with friends. It’s the perfect food to have when you get a bunch of friends together for a relaxed, and delicious, gathering.
Love my turkish bread toasted and filled with smoked salmon, capers and horseradish cream oh yum

I love it toasted with avo & tomato nice and simple, although I went to two, yes, two different bakers delights to buy some today and they both had none! I was really craving it too!
I’m counting kilojoules at the moment so Turkish bread is out for now but when its not it is fantastic with ham, basil infused feta and roasted capsicum yum

Actually, I didn’t know what Turkish Bread was until I saw this Bakers Delight competition on Facebook. Don’t get me wrong – I’ve been eating it and enjoying it for a while now ever since my wife started making me sandwiches with it. I thought it was a new type of focaccia or something. Anyway, I love it and it makes a great variation on the regular sliced bread sanga tradition.
i love it lightly toasted then filled with chicken, pesto, cheese, rocket, just scrumptious
I’m soooooo into Turkish bread! I love my Japanese Inspired Steak Sandwich. The Turkish bread is toasted slightly and served with chargrilled eggplant, zucchini, red capsicum, feta cheese and slices of grilled steak. Best of all, it’s my Wasabi Mayo that makes the sandwich so delectable! MMMMM
I love Bakers Delight Turkish Bread toasted with bacon, tomato and avocado. Can’t beat it for a filling lunch.
mmmm caramelized onion, goats cheese and grilled squash – yummo!!
A few years ago I went to Germany, and had a German Kebab. Instead of using flat bread and rolling it like they do here, they used Turkish bread in the shape of a diamond, toasted so it was like a bowl, and they filled it with kebab meat, salad, feta cheese and garlic sauce, it was awesome, the toasted sesame seed coated crunchy exterior, but soft filling made it very different and very tasty.
turkish bread and chunky dip…… yummy
Love my Turkish bread with turkey, cranberry sauce and salad
butter and homemade jam on turkish bread, yum!
I spread the top with garlic butter and then grill it on the BBQ so the outside is crispy and the inside is soft and yummy and the garlic butter is melted – it truly is delicious!
I LOVE eating turkish bread slightly toasted with roasted pumpkins! They just melt in your mouth, they are the best
Anyway you have it – you Love it.
Toasted for a Steak Sandwich, warmed for Chicken and avocado or just diced for olive oil and dukkah.
Its so easy to smarten up a boring lunch with a little bit of turkish.
Hmmmmm….Turkish Bread…..gotta love it!!!!!!
