According to the researches of the former manager of Topkapı Palace Museum , Tahsin Öz and scientists, it is known that the variety of Turkish meals is more than 2500. When looked inside past tracts –“risale”- are found. However, Turkish Cuisine has a tenet transferred from generation to generation and life style is coming from very old times.

Old big imperials that had lived in Anatolia had brought their cuisine cultures while bringing their own cultures. Synthesis of the cultures and customs of Mongolians came from Asia and crusades from Europe had come into life in Anatolia .

Turkish clans who had first come to Anatolia from Asia , then had gone to Rumelia had mixed these savings with old customs. There is not only this historical evolution but also Anatolia 's own culture and geography.
