How To Make Turkish Cotton Candy - Pişmaniye Recipe

How To Make Turkish Cotton Candy, Pişmaniye Nasıl Yapılır.
Until recently pişmaniye used to be made at home in most regions of Turkey, but this tradition is now rapidly disappearing. Today the manufacturing process is partially mechanised.

Alternative names

There are many different Turkish names, used in different provinces, the most common being tel helva, çekme helva, tel tel, tepme helva and keten helva.

Origin and etymology

The earliest Turkish reference to pişmaniye is a recipe by Şirvani, a physician writing during the 1430s. The Persian form pashmak, related to paşmīna and paşm, the origin of the Turkish name pişmaniye, occurs in the poetry of the Iranian poet Ebu Ishak, also known as Bushak (d. 1423 or 1427). "Pashm" in Persian means wool, and "Pashmak" means wool-like.
Another theory is that it may be of a Coptic origin from :'ⲡⲏⲥ: pis": which means :" to mix flour with fat" , and "ⲛⲏⲓⲛⲓ: nani or mani ": which means : "honey" , this candy found in Egypt, known as "halawa shaar حلاوة شعر" which means : "hair candy".

American here who just picked some of this up from a middle eastern market today. It's fantastic! It has the texture of soft wool. American cotton candy is like polyester in comparison.

I bought some of this at a Turkish market in France and it was amazing (I bought a chocolate-covered kind called "Efsane Pişmaniye" from the a brand called Çiloğlu). I didn't know that people could make pişmaniye themselves.

Wow..what an art..this could also count as an AMSR video as it was relaxing to watch. A very simple recipe with lots of love (and hard work)!

I brought some chocolate covered pismaniye back from Istanbul for my coworkers to try. It was like powder in our mouths so I just HAD to see how it was made. Fantastic! I might do this one day. Also: helva! lol

If I counted it right, there were over 128, 000 individual strands by the time the pulling was complete. Nice!

You didn't show the actual entire process without cuts, and it looks suspiciously similar to turkish cotton candy so i'mma wait for that.

Recipe as long to prepare as pancakes .. We take time and we taste them in a short record time.. It's still my cute sin, the Turkish women died of laughter when I devoured a full box in the street.. My God why did you send me an invitation to dinner during this month of Ramadan at my friend Névine?? Today, I'm in pain to get into my bathing suit. These treats are bewitching, be careful !

[sayedraza]

Can u please tellll the ingredients name

[GrakouMusic]

THIS IS IT? The flour still looks raw at the end of the video (although pre-heated), so I believe it all needs some heat treatment afterwards?
