My mother-in-Law tells me that soup (in particular tahana soup) encourages milk production in breast feeding women!!! There really is a soup for everything here.

There is a serious side to this......I had a persistent cough and I was recommended to go to one of the spice shops in the old market and he gave me a mix of Cinnamon Ginger Cloves Ginseng root and linden flowers from which you make an infusion. Drunk in Turkish Tea glasses with a spoonful of honey as many as you want.......Cough went in a couple of days. Can't prove it was the herbal mix but the cough did go.[?]

Mummy says to little Mehmet 'Come on, eat your soup; it will make you feel better!' to which he replies 'What a load of tripe!'

I was given a remedy for an upset tummy ie tummy pains and/or Diahroea and it works
Take a teaspoon of Turkish coffee and pop it in the mouth, then add half a teaspoon of sugar in the mouth, Now swallow. I know it sounds daft but it worked on me.
