Homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread is a savory Turkish cheese mixture made by combining lor, a mild curd cheese, with Ezine cheese, a more distinctive brined cheese. It is eaten as a spread, commonly with bread.
To make homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread, mash the two cheeses together until combined. For a smoother texture, blend them briefly or press them through a sieve; any extra ingredients depend on the particular recipe.
Homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread is more savory and strongly flavored than plain lor because Ezine cheese adds salt and a fuller cheese taste. Lor keeps the mixture milder and gives it a softer, spreadable base.
Homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread works well on toast, crackers, or fresh bread, and can be served with sliced vegetables. Since Ezine cheese can taste salty, pair it with unsalted accompaniments rather than adding more salt.
Keep homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread in a clean, sealed container in the refrigerator and aim to use it within 3–4 days. Use a clean utensil each time, and discard it if it has been left out for an extended period.
Yes. To make homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread less salty, mix in more unsalted lor rather than rinsing the finished spread, which can make it watery. Taste the Ezine cheese before mixing, since its saltiness varies.
You can freeze homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread, but its texture may turn grainy or watery after thawing. Thaw it in the refrigerator and stir thoroughly before serving; for the smoothest texture, make only as much as you will use fresh.
For a smoother homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread, crumble the cheeses first and blend them in short bursts. If your recipe allows, mix in a small amount of yogurt to loosen a thick mixture, then blend again.
Yes, feta can replace Ezine cheese in homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread, although the flavor will not be identical. Feta varies in saltiness and firmness, so start with a smaller amount and adjust the mixture after tasting.

Homemade lor and Ezine cheese spread brings together lor, a mild Turkish curd cheese, and Ezine, a brined cheese traditionally made around Ezine in Çanakkale. The lor softens Ezine’s more pronounced, savoury flavour, making a spread with a creamy, slightly crumbly texture.
In Turkey, it is commonly served at breakfast on fresh bread, often alongside tomatoes, cucumber and tea. Elsewhere, try it on toast or flatbread, or as part of a mezze-style spread with fresh vegetables. It provides protein and calcium, so it can make a satisfying addition to breakfast. A thin layer is plenty when serving it with other rich or salty dishes.
