Template:Linkless Ashure is a dessert that is made of a mixture consisting of grains, fruits and nuts. Its annecdotal history is that when Noah's Ark came to rest on Mount Ararat in northeastern Turkey, Noah's family celebrated with a special dish. Since their supplies were nearly exhausted, what was left (primarily grains, dried fruits and the like), were cooked together to form a pudding and thus made themselves a splendid repass of what is now call Ashure.
