What is Bahçevan Strained Cheese?
Bahçevan Strained Cheese is a Turkish fresh cheese made by draining away some of the liquid, leaving a soft, thick, spreadable texture. Its mild, slightly salty dairy flavour works well on bread and at breakfast; in Turkey, it is often served with olives, tomatoes and cucumber. You can also use it in sandwiches, savoury pastries or as the base for a simple herb dip.
It provides protein and calcium, while its relatively rich texture makes a little go a long way. For a lighter meal, spread a modest amount on toast and pair it with fresh vegetables, or stir in herbs and serve it alongside a larger spread.
