What kind of fat did you use?
Ayşe: We used animal fat mostly.
Did you have stove ?
Ayşe: No, we had "tandır" which was a kind of oven made in a hole in the earth. We used cow dung and woods to fire it.
Do you like the dishes in those times or at now?
Ayşe: Although recipes are same, the dishes in old times were more delicious. They were all organic and they were cooked via of fire, not electricity.
How many times did you eat in a day?
Ayşe: Generally two times, in the mornings and evenings. We didnt have certain times to eat. When our work was off, we ate.
Do you have any recipe created uniquely by you?
Ayşe: I dont know if there is someone cooking in the same way but I call it "Basma". I chop the eggplants with their top. I add garlic, onion, tomato and pepper. I cook them with a low heat without adding water. This is my recipe.

Did you have a fridge? If no, how did you keep the foods fresh?
Bahar: No, we didnt. We put them into a cold room. Sometimes we buried them under soil. Or we dried them to eat later especially fruits. We dried fruits in summer and ate them in winter.
