(*) Isot is a typical Turkish spice based on crushed chili peppers from the Turkish city of Urfa. Isot has a smoky, sweet and earthy taste. The peppers are originally red and turn black through the fermentation process in which they are cut open after harvesting and dried in the sun for a week during the day - at night they are wrapped in cloths so that they sweat. Isot has a medium level of spiciness.
