Use taze for food described as fresh or for something newly prepared.
The idea
Taze ekmek is fresh bread; taze çay can mean freshly made tea. Context tells you what freshness refers to.
Examples
- Bu ekmek taze.This bread is fresh.
- Taze bir domates alıyorum.I am buying a fresh tomato.
- Ekmek bayat değil, taze.The bread is not stale; it is fresh.
- Taze sebzeler bu tezgahta.The fresh vegetables are at this stall.
- Taze çay istiyorum.I would like freshly made tea.
- Bu balık bugün taze.This fish is fresh today.
