What is Bidon cheese with black cumin?
Bidon cheese with black cumin is a Turkish aged cheese made by salting curds, mixing in black cumin seeds and packing the cheese tightly into a container to mature. The milk used and the length of ageing can vary by region, so its firmness and saltiness are not always the same.
It has a savoury, distinctly salty taste, with a gently peppery note from the seeds. In Turkey it is commonly served at breakfast with bread, tomatoes and olives, and alongside tea; it also works on a simple cheese board. It provides protein and is relatively rich in fat and salt. If you prefer a milder plate, serve a small portion with fresh vegetables.
