Traditional Chickpea Roasting and Modern Production

Roasted chickpeas, known as leblebi in Turkish, are among the country's traditional snacks. With their distinctive taste and variety of options, they have remained popular across generations. The town of Serinhisar in Denizli is particularly well known for its long-standing roasted chickpea production tradition.

The Roasted Chickpea Tradition of Serinhisar

Roasted chickpea production in Serinhisar represents more than a commercial activity; it is a tradition built on knowledge and experience passed down through generations. Over time, local producers have contributed to the development of different varieties, helping establish the region as an important centre for Turkish roasted chickpeas.

Founded in 1976 by Hacı Mehmet Kabayuka, Hisarsan Kuruyemiş continues this tradition with experience spanning three generations. The company aims to preserve the region's production heritage while adapting to changing consumer expectations.
