What is Halil Ağa cheese?
Halil Ağa cheese is a traditional Turkish cheese known for its full-fat, salty character. Made from milk, it has a rich flavour that works well in simple meals as well as on a shared table.
In Turkey, it may be served at breakfast with bread, tomatoes and olives, often alongside tea. You can also slice it into a sandwich or add it to a cheese board; its saltiness pairs nicely with fresh vegetables and mild bread.
