Ashura "Aşure" is an authentic Turkish dessert that is believed that it is first made by Prophet Noah to gather all of the remaining foodstuffs to make this sweet pudding when he and his family left the ark. Ashura is a healthy dessert filled with beans, dried fruits, whole grain wheat sweetened with sugar and spices and cooked in one pot. It is customary to share it with others.
