Gözleme are Turkish street-food-style flatbreads described as “quesadilla-meets-stuffed-flatbread.” They are made with wheat flour-based dough and a blend of cheeses, including tulum and kashkaval along with mozzarella. The cheeses create a complex flavor with slight tanginess that complements the creamy mozzarella. The bread is thin and flaky, toasting into a crisp, crusty exterior while the cheese melts and spills slightly. The product is slightly oily, so napkins are recommended. Each box contains three individually wrapped gözleme, each with 17 grams of protein. They can be eaten plain or paired with vegetables such as cucumbers, tomatoes, or arugula salad for balance.
"A description on the Trader Joe's website calls it "quesadilla-meets-stuffed-flatbread," which makes sense after trying them. This Turkish food actually comes from a Turkish supplier to keep it more authentic to what you might find there as a popular street food."
"It is made with a wheat flour-based dough, tulum cheese, kashkaval cheese, and mozzarella cheese; the tulum and kashkaval set it apart. I can really taste the complexity of the cheeses. It has a slight tanginess that brings it all together, elevating the flavors of the creamy mozzarella and the flatbread."
"I love that the bread is thin and flaky and gets a nice crust on the outside as you toast it in your pan. The cheese is perfectly melty, and some of it spills out onto the sides. It is slightly oily, so make sure to keep some napkins on hand."
"Each box comes with three individually wrapped gözleme, each containing 17 grams of protein. It makes a filling part of your meal, but I'd suggest pairing it with some sort of vegetable to make it more balanced. I gobbled them plain, as is, because they are incredibly tasty."
