Actually, the recipe is on the Ministry of Culture website.  However, there is no primary source listed, and the recipe is merely dated as "Ottoman".  The web site dates the Ottoman Empire as extending from the 13th century until 1923.

I would also like to see the citation for the primary source for the recipe 
from the Turkish Minister of Culture. Having spent over 30 years in 
government service, I am well aware that most people working in the public 
sector do not adhere to academic standards when writing PR pieces. Since a 
primary source has not been mentioned, I think the Turkish government may 
have left that out of their little booklet, which raises the question of 
accuracy of transcription and translation.
