Frequently Asked Questions About Egg salad with lor cheese
What is egg salad with lor cheese?
Egg salad with lor cheese is a Turkish-style salad made with hard-boiled eggs and lor, a mild, soft cheese. It is commonly mixed with fresh herbs and a simple dressing, and served chilled or at room temperature.
How do you make egg salad with lor cheese?
To make egg salad with lor cheese, chop cooled hard-boiled eggs and gently mix them with crumbled lor. Add chopped herbs, olive oil, lemon juice, and black pepper to taste; mixing gently helps keep the eggs from turning mushy.
What is lor cheese, and can I substitute something for it in egg salad?
Lor is a mild Turkish whey cheese with a soft, crumbly texture. If you cannot find it, fresh ricotta or cottage cheese can work in egg salad with lor cheese, though both may be wetter and less crumbly than lor.

How is egg salad with lor cheese different from regular egg salad?

What herbs go well in egg salad with lor cheese?

What is Egg salad with lor cheese?
