The tastes of Rize were introduced at the "Turkish Cuisine Week"

Within the framework of the "Turkish Cuisine Week", an event was organized in the Çay Çarşısı in cooperation with the Governorship of Rize and the Provincial Directorate of Culture and Tourism. Black cabbage soup, which has an important place in Rize cuisine, Hemşin kete, which is used as a snack on the highland road, and the famous Laz pastry were offered to the participants. "Tea Brewing and Presentation Contest" was also organized by the Rize Commodity Exchange at the event. Governor Kemal Ceber told reporters that Turkey has a very wide cuisine and said, "There is a concept of Turkish cuisine that is generally accepted in the world. It is an important value that we must protect." Noting that Rize tea is also special, Çeber said, "It is a product that we try to use with everything. It is one of the most important products of our country. We also use Rize tea a lot in our kitchen activities." Marwah Khudur, a student at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University Faculty of Medicine, who participated in the competition, said, "Rize tea is very nice and light. I used to use sugar when I drank tea in my own country, now I don't, it has a mild taste."
