What is Herbed Kashar Cheese?
Herbed kashar cheese is a Turkish semi-hard cheese made by mixing herbs into kashar, a mild, sliceable cheese. The herbs vary by producer and region, giving it anything from a subtle herbal aroma to a more pronounced, savoury flavour. It keeps the creamy, slightly tangy character of kashar, with flecks of herbs adding freshness.
In Turkey, it is often served at breakfast with bread, tomatoes and olives, and is also used in toasties and sandwiches. Elsewhere, try it sliced on a cheese board or melted into a grilled sandwich. It provides protein and calcium, but is also rich in fat; a thin slice with vegetables makes a more balanced snack.
