Never hear of it.

Which part of the animal is it.



stomach - Mide

Heart - Kalp

Belly - Karnı

Gullet - boğaz, gırtlak, geçit, kanal

Pancreas - pankreas

the above is a good dictionary for translation of individual words.

Sweet = Tatli

Bread = Ekmek

But if you put them together I think it means 'scone'

If you wanted the balls, just say Daşşak.

Whilst the gonads are technically sweetbreads, it is other lymph glands that are usually used for culinary purposes.... throat neck or gullet thymus glands... the others are far too strong in flavour for most pallets.
