Ekici Matured White Cheese has a pronounced, savory flavor and a firmer, more developed character than a mild fresh white cheese. Its strong taste works well in small crumbles or slices alongside bread, vegetables, and olives.
No, Ekici Matured White Cheese is not feta, although both are white cheeses that may be brined and matured. Ekici is a Turkish-style white cheese, while feta has its own regional production standards and characteristic flavor and texture.
Keep Ekici Matured White Cheese refrigerated in its original packaging or a clean, covered container. If the package includes brine, keep the cheese covered by it, and use a clean utensil each time to reduce contamination.
Yes, you can freeze Ekici Matured White Cheese, but thawing may make its texture more crumbly. It is usually better suited to cooked dishes after freezing than to serving in slices; thaw it in the refrigerator.
Discard Ekici Matured White Cheese if it develops an unusual sour or rotten smell, a slimy surface, unexpected discoloration, or a swollen package. If you see mold, do not simply cut off the spot; throw the cheese away.
Yes, Ekici Matured White Cheese can replace feta in many salads, pastries, and savory dishes, but the flavor and texture will not be identical. Taste it first and adjust added salt, since the two cheeses can differ in saltiness.
Ekici Matured White Cheese generally softens and may crumble when heated rather than melting into a smooth, stretchy layer. Add it to hot dishes for a savory finish, but choose a cheese made for melting when you need a cohesive topping.
Ekici Matured White Cheese works in savory pastries, omelets, pasta, and baked vegetables. Its mature flavor can dominate a dish, so combine it with milder ingredients or add it near the end of cooking.
To make Ekici Matured White Cheese less salty, soak a small portion in cold water briefly and taste it before soaking longer. Extended soaking can soften the texture and wash out flavor, so check it periodically.
Some people with lactose intolerance tolerate aged cheeses better because maturation can reduce lactose, but the exact amount in Ekici Matured White Cheese is not provided here. If your intolerance is severe, ask a clinician or dietitian whether it is suitable for you.

Ekici Matured White Cheese is a Turkish-style white cheese made from milk and matured in brine. Ageing gives it a fuller, more pronounced flavour than a fresh, mild white cheese.
It is tangy and salty, with a firm yet crumbly texture that works well sliced or broken into pieces. In Turkey it is commonly served at breakfast with bread, olives and tomatoes, and it also suits salads, pastries and sandwiches. For other tables, try it with fresh vegetables or alongside eggs and bread. It provides protein and calcium, while its richness means a modest portion can go a long way; pair it with produce for a lighter meal.
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.

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.
