Georgian churchkhela

Churchkhela (also written churchkhella, Georgian: ჩურჩხელა, Russian: чурчхела) is a traditional sausage-shaped candy originating from the Caucasus, mainly Georgia, and also common in Russia and Turkey.[1] In Turkish it is called pestil cevizli sucuk, literally walnut sujuk because of its sausage shape.[2]

Churchkhela is made of walnuts, hazel nuts, almonds or raisins sewn onto a string, dipped in thickened white grape juice then to caramel and dried in the shape of a sausage.[3][4][5]
