Chilled items & warm-weather notice

We ship chilled (perishable) foods with ice-gel packs, kept refrigerated. In warm weather, light oil sweating on cured products such as sucuk/pastırma, or softening of cheese, is normal and not a sign of spoilage — it returns to normal once chilled. Please refrigerate items immediately on delivery and be available to receive your order on the delivery day.

Perishable foods are exempt from the 14-day change-of-mind return; your statutory rights for genuine quality or safety issues remain unaffected.

Description

If simit is the crunchy star of the Istanbul street cart, açma is its soft, buttery cousin. This pack from Maun contains five plain rings of rich, tender dough, ready to warm in the oven so you can enjoy a proper bakery-style breakfast at home in a matter of minutes.

What Is Açma?

Açma is a classic Turkish breakfast bun, usually shaped into a ring or a gently twisted circle. The dough is enriched with butter or oil, milk and a touch of sugar, then rolled thin, folded and coiled so that it bakes into soft, slightly flaky layers. The outside turns a light golden brown while the inside stays fluffy and pull-apart tender.

It is often described as a cross between a brioche and a croissant, and that is a fair comparison. You get the richness of an enriched dough with a hint of the layering you find in laminated pastry, but it is lighter and less sweet than either, which makes it easy to enjoy every day.

How It Fits Into Turkish Mornings

In Turkey, açma is sold from the same bakeries and street carts as simit and poğaça, and many people pick one up on their way to work along with a glass of tea. At home it is a regular feature of weekend breakfasts, served warm alongside cheese, olives, jam and boiled eggs. Children love it because it is soft and easy to eat, and adults appreciate how well it goes with savoury and sweet toppings alike. On a Sunday morning, a basket of warm açma in the middle of the table rarely lasts long.

Ready When You Are

These are frozen pastries, which means you can keep a pack in the freezer and bake only what you need. A few minutes in a hot oven and they come out warm and fragrant, tasting as though they have just left the bakery. It is an easy way to enjoy soft bread rolls with a Turkish twist without getting up early to knead dough.

How to Heat Them

Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the pack.
Place the açma on a lined baking tray, leaving a little space between each one.
Warm until golden and heated through, then leave to cool for a minute before serving.

Please note that because these are frozen products, once they have thawed during delivery they should not be refrozen. Simply keep them in the fridge and enjoy them within a short time, following the guidance on the pack.

Serving Ideas

Tear open while warm and fill with white cheese, tomato and cucumber.
Spread with butter and honey, or with tahini and grape molasses.
Serve with a spoonful of kaymak and jam for a special breakfast.
Pair with a hot bowl of lentil soup for a light lunch.

Contains wheat and milk, and may contain egg and sesame. Please check the pack for full allergen information.
