Salep is an orchid from whose bulb the drink of the same name is produced. This orchid grows and is cultivated in the high mountains of the Balkans and the Middle East. Salep has therapeutic properties because it contains the medicinal substances arabino and tragacanthine and a lot of starch which, when dissolved in water, create a thick and sticky liquid. It is considered suitable for relieving coughs, asthma and stomachaches, acts against dysentery, while significantly stimulating the immune system . It is also attributed with aphrodisiac properties, which is why in ancient times it was called “Satyreion”.

Salep is not particularly high in calories. Plain, unsweetened salep has about 15 calories per serving (1 teaspoon of 15 grams), while if it is a ready-made powder mixed with sugar, it has about 30 calories per serving.
