Kataifi - Long, Unshredded & Unroasted Kataifi – Ideal for Savory Dolmas and Sweet Desserts

Unshredded & Unroasted: Our kataifi is presented in long, intact strands without any pre-roasting or shredding. This gives you full control over how you prepare and customize each recipe.

Premium Ingredients: Made from 100% high-quality wheat flour and water—no additives, preservatives, or artificial colors. You begin with a truly pure base.

Long, Fine Strands: Each strand remains long and delicate, providing exceptional flexibility for wrapping, layering, or coagulating around fillings. Perfect for both savory and sweet applications.

Versatile Usage:

• Savory Dolmas & “Karadeniz Dolması”: Wrap rice, ground meat, or vegetable fillings in long kataifi strands. When cooked, the outer layer becomes crisp while the interior stays moist, adding unique texture to every bite.

• Classic Turkish & Middle Eastern Desserts: Shape into traditional desserts like “Kadayıf Dolması,” “Şöbiyet,” and “Baklava Rolls.” The long, unbroken strands create evenly layered pastries that bake and soak syrup uniformly.

• Modern Fusion Creations: Use as a decorative crunch or wrap for chocolate, nut, or fruit fillings. Ideal for inventing new dessert concepts (e.g., chocolate-stuffed rolls, fruit compote–wrapped bites).

Customizable Preparation: Because the kataifi has not been roasted, you can choose your preferred fat—clarified butter, pure butter, or olive oil—to roast and flavor the strands at home. This flexibility lets you develop unique aroma profiles:

• Butter-Roasted Aroma: Brown gently in butter for a rich, nutty flavor that elevates sweet recipes like kunafa or cheese-filled pastries.

• Olive Oil Roasting: For a lighter, Mediterranean twist on savory dishes such as vegetable dolmas or cheese-wrapped appetizers.

Easy Storage & Longevity: Vacuum-sealed in an airtight package to preserve freshness and prevent moisture. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months without compromising texture or taste.

Effortless Handling: Remove from packaging and lightly moisten with water or milk to soften if desired. This step makes it exceptionally easy to shape around fillings or layer between pastry sheets.
