Van Ayran Vaccine Description and Distinguishing Features of the Product: Van Ayran Aşı (Yogurt Soup) is a traditional dish made from a blend of wheat flour, yogurt, egg, water, and salt. To this base, ingredients such as crushed wheat, butternut squash, butter, and either stone leek or spinach are added. The soup is served warm and garnished with finely chopped fresh coriander. Because stone leek is seasonal, growing only in spring and summer, spinach is used as a substitute when the soup is prepared outside of these months. The history of Van Ayran Aşı extends back many years, playing an important role in the gastronomic heritage of the Van region. Its strong association with the geographical area is a testament to its enduring popularity and cultural significance.
