Rachel finds herself taking in the Princes’ Islands of Istanbul, a chain of
nine small islands in the Sea of Marmara, where the people of Istanbul
come to escape the buzz of city life.
Here Rachel takes things easy as she hops on a boat and visits a place
where it feels as if time has stood still. Rachel discovers a cute
Bohemian café with a tiny kitchen that feels very familiar but gives the
British cook and food writer lots of new ideas inspired by Turkish
cuisine.
Back home in London she cooks a ‘Razor Clam Mezze’, ‘Butternut Filo
Pastry Snails’ and a ‘Pistachio Yogurt Cake with Pomegranate
marbling’.
