Frequently Asked Questions About Eggs with keş

What are Eggs with keş?

Eggs with keş is a Turkish dish of eggs cooked with keş, a firm, dried yogurt product, often with butter. The keş softens as it warms and gives the eggs a savory, tangy flavor.

How do you make Eggs with keş?

To make Eggs with keş, grate the keş and warm it gently in butter, then add the eggs and cook them to your preferred doneness. Taste before salting, since keş can already be salty.

What does keş taste like in Eggs with keş?

In Eggs with keş, the keş tastes tangy, salty, and concentrated, rather than mild and creamy like fresh yogurt. Heating it with butter softens its texture and spreads that distinctive flavor through the eggs.

Where do Eggs with keş come from?

Eggs with keş are associated with Turkish home cooking, particularly the Bolu and western Black Sea region, where keş is a traditional ingredient. Recipes vary between households, so the balance of eggs, butter, and keş is not fixed.

Is keş the same as cheese in Eggs with keş?

Keş is a dairy product, but it is not simply a fresh cheese: it is typically made by salting and drying strained yogurt. That process gives Eggs with keş a firmer texture and more concentrated, tangy taste.

What can I serve with Eggs with keş?

Can I use feta instead of keş in Eggs with keş?

You can use crumbled feta in place of keş, but the result will not taste quite the same. Feta is generally moist and briny, while dried keş is firmer and has a concentrated tang from strained yogurt.

Can Eggs with keş be made ahead?

Eggs with keş are best cooked just before serving because reheated eggs can turn firm and the butter may feel greasy. You can grate the keş ahead of time, then warm it and cook the eggs when ready to eat.

Should you add salt to Eggs with keş?

Usually, wait before adding salt to Eggs with keş. Keş can be quite salty, so cook the eggs first, taste the finished dish, and season only if it needs it.

Are Eggs with keş eaten for breakfast?

What is Eggs with keş?

Eggs with keş brings eggs together with keş, a traditional Turkish dried, salted yoghurt product often grated or crumbled into the pan. The dish is especially associated with home cooking in parts of western Black Sea Turkey, where keş is made by straining yoghurt and drying it.
