Frequently Asked Questions About Ekici Lokum White Cheese
Is Ekici Lokum White Cheese the same as feta?
No, Ekici Lokum White Cheese is a Turkish-style white cheese, not automatically the same as Greek feta. It is described as soft and salty, while feta is often firmer and more crumbly; taste and texture can differ in recipes.
What can I make with Ekici Lokum White Cheese?
Ekici Lokum White Cheese works in salads, sandwiches, pastries, and egg dishes. Its soft texture makes it easy to crumble or spread, so drain excess moisture before adding it to fillings that should stay crisp.
Can Ekici Lokum White Cheese replace feta in a recipe?
Yes, Ekici Lokum White Cheese can replace feta in many salads and cooked fillings. Expect a softer result, and taste the dish before adding extra salt because the cheese itself is salty.
Does Ekici Lokum White Cheese work in a grilled cheese sandwich?
Yes, Ekici Lokum White Cheese can go in a grilled sandwich, where it softens as the bread browns. It may not stretch like mozzarella, so pair it with a firmer melting cheese if you want a stretchy filling.
How should I store Ekici Lokum White Cheese once opened?
Keep Ekici Lokum White Cheese refrigerated in a tightly closed container after opening. If its package contains brine, store the cheese in that liquid; follow the package directions and use it by the stated date.
Can you freeze Ekici Lokum White Cheese?
Yes, you can freeze Ekici Lokum White Cheese, but thawing may make its soft texture watery or crumbly. Use thawed cheese in cooked dishes such as pastry fillings rather than expecting its original texture on a cheese board.
How can I make Ekici Lokum White Cheese less salty?
Briefly soaking Ekici Lokum White Cheese in cold water can draw out some salt. Check the taste soon and remove it promptly, since a long soak can make this soft cheese lose its texture.
Is Ekici Lokum White Cheese safe to eat during pregnancy?
Ekici Lokum White Cheese is suitable during pregnancy only if it is made with pasteurized milk and has been kept properly chilled. Check the package for pasteurization information; ask your clinician if it is unclear or your pregnancy is high-risk.
Can people with lactose intolerance eat Ekici Lokum White Cheese?
Some people with lactose intolerance tolerate small amounts of cheese, but the lactose content of Ekici Lokum White Cheese has not been specified. It is not identified as lactose-free, so avoid it if it triggers symptoms.
How do you serve Ekici Lokum White Cheese on a cheese board?
Serve Ekici Lokum White Cheese chilled, in small slices or spooned portions, with bread, olives, and fresh vegetables. Its soft texture makes it a good contrast to firmer cheeses, but keep it refrigerated until serving.

What is Ekici Lokum White Cheese?
Ekici Lokum White Cheese is a Turkish-style white cheese sold under the Ekici brand. It has a soft, yielding texture and a noticeably salty, mild dairy flavour; “lokum” suggests its tender, easy-to-cut consistency.
In Turkey it is commonly served at breakfast with bread, olives, tomatoes and cucumber, and it also works in sandwiches, salads or pastries. Elsewhere, try it crumbled or sliced on toast, or as part of a mezze-style spread. It provides protein and calcium, while also being relatively rich in fat and salt. Pair it with fresh vegetables, or use a thinner slice if you want a lighter sandwich.
