hi.my name is Sofia and i m greek.i really like your blog ,me and my husband adore turkish kitchen.as for the previous recipe with the long beans ,i suggest you to try one cretan variety .while you are boiling the beans add in the water a whole unpeeled tomato.after the boiling is over, serve the beans and on top pour the chopped tomato -after you removed the skin-add oil salt and a little pepper and vinegar if you want and enjoy with with fried potatoes!!!!!
Hi Bellivas,

Hi Binnur,
I love borulce and we make it all the time during the summer months in Turkey but I don't know where I can find them in the U.S.? I am not sure if they would be available at the local supermarkets?
Hi,
You'd better check the Chinese super market. I hope there is one in your neighborhood:)
