Kapuska is a hearty traditional Turkish cuisine and Balkan cuisine stew[1][2] whose name is derived from the Slavic languages word for cabbage. Although the name is imported, the dish is a Turkish version of a cabbage stew common in Russia, Ukraine, Poland and other countries of Eastern Europe. Kapuska is widely known and consumed in the Thrace and Black Sea regions of Turkey.
Kapuska is cooked in different ways in Turkey: with garbanzo beans, bulgur, rice, ground meat, lamb, beef, or vegetarian.
It is known to be a dish for the poor. Turkish poet Fethi Naci writes in his memoirs that during World War II the dish they most ate was kapuska.[3]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
