Hatay bazlama cheese is a traditional, full-fat, salty cheese from Hatay. Cheesemaking and salting make it a processed dairy food; that classification does not necessarily mean it is an industrial processed-cheese product.
Hatay bazlama cheese has a distinctly salty, rich taste because it is a full-fat cheese. Pairing it with plain bread or fresh vegetables can balance its savouriness without adding more salt to the meal.
Hatay bazlama cheese can be sliced and served cold, especially with bread and fresh vegetables. It also works in savoury fillings; taste the dish before seasoning because the cheese itself is salty.
No, Hatay bazlama cheese is not bazlama bread. The name refers to a cheese from Hatay, while bazlama is a type of Turkish flatbread; they can be served together but are different foods.
Keep Hatay bazlama cheese refrigerated in a covered container or its original packaging. If it was packed in brine, keep it in that brine and follow the package’s storage directions after opening.
Yes, Hatay bazlama cheese can be frozen, but thawing may make its texture drier or more crumbly. Use thawed cheese in cooked dishes or fillings, where a change in texture is less noticeable.
Hatay bazlama cheese can soften and melt when heated, though the result varies with the cheese’s moisture and texture. Test a small piece before using it in a toastie or other dish where smooth melting matters.
Yes, Hatay bazlama cheese can be used as a börek filling. Its saltiness seasons the filling, so taste it before adding extra salt; combine it with other filling ingredients to spread the flavour through the pastry.
No, Hatay bazlama cheese and Hatay örgü cheese are different regional cheeses. Hatay örgü cheese is known for its braided form, while bazlama cheese is a separate local variety.
Yes, Hatay bazlama cheese can be eaten without cooking. Slice it and serve it cold with bread or vegetables; cooking is optional, not a requirement for serving this cheese.

Hatay bazlama cheese is a traditional cheese associated with Hatay, in southern Turkey. It has a rich, salty character and is commonly served at breakfast with bread, olives and fresh vegetables. It also pairs naturally with bazlama, the soft Turkish flatbread its name evokes, whether served alongside it or tucked into a warm piece.
It provides protein, but is also high in fat and salt; a 100 g portion contains 18.5 g of protein. Its bold flavour means a little can go a long way. Pair it with tomatoes, cucumber or other fresh produce for a lighter-feeling plate, and avoid adding extra salt.
