Apron Client Constantinople Cream Istanbul Seller Yolk Berggren
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the rich history of Constantinople, now modern-day Istanbul, Turkey. The image portrays an ice cream seller, dressed in a traditional apron, artfully scooping a scrumptious serving of Turkish ice cream for a delighted female client. The scene unfolds on the bustling streets of this historic city, with the faint sounds of horse-drawn carriages and chatter of passersby in the background. Turkish ice cream, also known as dondurma, is a unique and beloved dessert that has been a staple in Turkish culture for centuries. Unlike traditional ice cream, Turkish ice cream is made with a mixture of milk, sugar, and cornstarch, resulting in a denser, chewier texture. The ice cream is often served with a variety of toppings such as chopped nuts, pistachios, or buckeyes. The seller's skillful technique, demonstrated in the photograph, involves using a long, thin hook to scoop the ice cream from the large, cylindrical container. The ice cream is then rolled and stretched, creating a mesmerizing display that has captivated generations of customers. The lady in the photograph, with a look of pure joy on her face, savors the moment as she takes her first bite of the creamy treat. The use of a yolk in the ice cream-making process gives it a distinct yellow hue, adding to the visual appeal of the dessert. This photograph not only showcases the deliciousness of Turkish ice cream but also transports us back in time, allowing us to experience a piece of Constantinople's rich history and vibrant culture.
