The aim of this study is to reveal the standard recipe of kelem wrapping with crenic, which is an important local dish in Muş province, to determine the consumption and preservation methods and to promote it within the scope of sustainable gastronomy tourism. For this purpose, information about Muş kırçikli Kelem Wrap was given and the case study method, which is one of the qualitative research methods, was preferred.

 Yöresel yiyecek ve içecekler, bir bölgenin veya ilin mutfak kültürü ile yöresel değerlerinin bir araya getirilmesiyle ortaya çıkan ve geleneksel olarak sürdürülebilirliğini devam ettiren ürünlerdir. Muş ili de gerek tarihsel süreçte çeşitli olaylara ev sahipliği yapmış olması gerekse de ilde yetişen tarımsal ürünlerin çeşitlliği sebebiyle zengin bir mutfak kültürüne sahiptir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Muş ilinde önemli bir yöresel yemek olan kırçikli kelem sarmasının standart reçetesini ortaya çıkartmak, tüketim ve muhafaza yöntemlerini belirlemek ve sürdürülebilir gastronomi turizmi kapsamında tanıtımını yapmak olarak amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla, Muş kırçikli kelem sarması hakkında bilgiler verilmiş ve nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden olan durum çalışması yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Muşta yaşayan, amaçlı örnekleme yöntemiyle 45 yaş ve üzeri yöresel yemekler ve kırcikli kelem sarması yapımı hakkında detaylı bilgiye sahip olan 12 kişi ile yüz yüze görüşme gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmaya katılan kişilerden elde edilen bilgilere göre, Muş kırçikli kelem sarmasının hazırlanış ve servis bakımından diğer sarmalardan farklı olduğu, dini bayramlar, özel gün yemeklerin ve kış aylarında yapılmaya devam edildiği ve Muş mutfak kültürü ve ilin tanıtımı açısından önemli gastronomik bir ürün olduğu ifade edilmiştir. Ayrıca kırçikli kelem sarması yemeğinin coğrafi işaretli ürünler içerisinde değerlendirilmesi için gerekli çalışmaların yapılması önem arz etmektedir.
