In Kayseri, a city known for its pastrami and sausage, spice prices for these dishes have increased by 10% this year ahead of Eid al-Adha, according to local spice maker Kenan Eldek. The cost of making the sausage, made only once a year, varies based on the quality of the pepper used. A recipe for 10 kilograms of medium spicy sausage seasoning ranges in price from 45 TL to 55 TL, with the cost of the intestines for the sausage varying depending on its quality. Eldek emphasizes the importance of buying quality spices and emphasizes that the ingredients used should be adjusted based on the amount of sausage being made.
