Baking Baklava With Betül Tunç
Of Turkuaz Kitchen

We’re back with a brand new season of She’s My Cherry Pie! To kick us off this year is social media darling Betül Tunç of the widely popular Turkuaz Kitchen account. Betül is a baker, recipe developer, and new cookbook author. Her debut book, Turkuaz Kitchen, was released last year.

Betül joins host Jessie Sheehan to discuss how she started baking, her journey from Turkey to the U.S., and how she amassed millions of followers online through her artful recipe videos. The duo also do a deep dive into Betül ’s Turkish Pistachio Baklava from her book. The baker shares her best tips for working with the dough, including her special rolling pin, and says which ingredient she refuses to touch with bare hands.
