Ekici Full Fat White Cheese is a packaged Turkish-style white cheese with a savory taste and a dense, slightly crumbly texture. It can be eaten as is or used in everyday dishes; it is not the same cheese as cheddar or mozzarella.
Ekici Full Fat White Cheese works well crumbled into savory pastries, pasta, or cooked vegetables. Its salty flavor seasons a filling on its own, so taste the mixture before adding extra salt, and drain excess moisture if the cheese seems wet.
No. Ekici Full Fat White Cheese is a Turkish-style white cheese, while feta is a Greek cheese traditionally made from sheep’s milk or a sheep-and-goat milk blend. They can both be salty and crumbly, but their flavor and texture are not identical.
Yes, Ekici Full Fat White Cheese can be eaten without cooking. Serve it in slices or crumbled with bread, olives, and vegetables, or add it to a cold salad; keep it refrigerated and follow the package directions after opening.
Keep Ekici Full Fat White Cheese refrigerated in a clean, covered container after opening. If the package includes brine, store the cheese in that brine, and follow the package’s storage instructions. Avoid leaving it at room temperature for extended periods.
Yes, you can freeze Ekici Full Fat White Cheese, but freezing may make it more crumbly or watery once thawed. It is usually better to use thawed cheese in a cooked filling or hot dish than to serve it as slices.
Ekici Full Fat White Cheese softens when heated but does not melt into the stretchy texture of mozzarella. Crumble it into a sandwich for a creamy, savory filling, or combine it with a melting cheese if you want a stretchy toast.
To reduce the saltiness of Ekici Full Fat White Cheese, soak a small piece briefly in cold water and taste it before soaking longer. Drain it well before adding it to a dish, since prolonged soaking can dull its flavor and soften its texture.
Yes, Ekici Full Fat White Cheese can generally be eaten during pregnancy if it is made with pasteurized milk and has been stored as directed. Check the package for pasteurization information; if it is unclear, ask your healthcare professional before eating it.
Not as a direct one-for-one replacement: Ekici Full Fat White Cheese is typically saltier and firmer than ricotta. It can work in a savory filling if you crumble it and adjust the added salt, but it will give the dish a stronger flavor and denser texture.

Ekici Full Fat White Cheese is a Turkish-style white cheese sold in a block. Made from cow’s milk, it has a dense, slightly moist texture and a mild, tangy, salty flavour. It is a familiar choice for Turkish tables, especially at breakfast.
Serve it with bread, tomatoes, cucumbers and olives, or crumble it over salads and savoury pastries. It also works well on a mezze plate, while in other kitchens it can stand in for a salty, crumbly table cheese. The full-fat style makes it rich and satisfying; it provides protein and calcium, but is also high in fat. Pair it with fresh vegetables for a lighter plate, or soak it briefly in water if you prefer a less salty taste.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
