Turkish Ice Cream (Dondurma): Why It Melts More Slowly Traditional Turkish ice cream, known as dondurma — especially the style from Kahramanmaraş — has a distinctive dense and stretchy texture. Unlike most regular ice creams, it resists melting quickly thanks to two key natural ingredients: • Salep: A powder made from the dried tubers of wild orchids. It acts as a powerful thickener, creating a gel-like structure that holds the mixture together. • Mastic: A resin from the mastic tree, which adds chewiness and further contributes to the elastic consistency. The mixture is also churned and kneaded extensively (sometimes by hand with long poles), developing a chewy, taffy-like quality rather than the light, airy texture of many Western-style ice creams. As a result, authentic dondurma softens and drips much more slowly in warm conditions. It does eventually melt — it’s still frozen dessert — but the rate is noticeably slower compared to standard ice cream. This property, along with its playful serving style, has made it a popular tradition in Turkey for centuries.
