Characteristics of Kastamonu Breakfast
In a Kastamonu breakfast, fresh village eggs, strained honey, clotted cream, various cheeses, homemade jams and butter are essentials. However, there are some special flavors that distinguish Kastamonu from other provinces.
Pastirma Eggs
Kastamonu's most famous breakfast dish is pastirma eggs. Thinly sliced pastirma is fried in butter and eggs are cracked on top. The pastirma combined with the spicy aroma of çemen leaves an unforgettable taste on your palate.
