Frequently Asked Questions About Kese Soup
How do you make Kese Soup?
To make Kese Soup, whisk yogurt, flour and egg into a smooth mixture, then gradually temper it with warm chicken broth. Stir it into the pot, add cooked shredded chicken and simmer gently, stirring, until the soup thickens.
What is in Kese Soup?
Kese Soup is made with yogurt, flour, egg and chicken. Chicken broth or water forms the liquid base, while salt and optional seasonings such as dried mint add flavor. Exact proportions vary between household recipes.
How do you stop Kese Soup from curdling?
Temper the yogurt, flour and egg mixture before adding it to Kese Soup: whisk in a little warm broth gradually, then pour it into the pot while stirring. Keep the heat gentle, since a rapid boil can make the yogurt separate.
Is Kese Soup the same as yayla soup?
No. Kese Soup contains chicken, while yayla soup is commonly made with yogurt, rice and mint. Both use a yogurt-based mixture, but they are distinct Turkish soups, and recipes can vary by household or region.
Does Kese Soup contain chicken?
Yes, chicken is a traditional ingredient in Kese Soup. It is usually cooked first, shredded and stirred into the soup, with chicken broth often used as the base. The amount of chicken can vary from one recipe to another.
Can you make Kese Soup without eggs?
Yes, you can leave the egg out of Kese Soup, but the yogurt-and-flour mixture may be less rich and may need careful stirring to stay smooth. Add the tempered mixture gradually and avoid boiling the soup hard.
What can you serve with Kese Soup?
Serve Kese Soup hot, with dried mint on top if you like. Bread and a simple salad make practical accompaniments; because the soup already includes chicken and a creamy yogurt base, a light side dish works well.
How long does Kese Soup last in the fridge?
Store cooled Kese Soup in a covered container in the refrigerator and eat it within 2 days. Reheat only what you plan to serve, stirring over low heat; a vigorous boil can cause the yogurt mixture to separate.
Can you freeze Kese Soup?
You can freeze Kese Soup, but its yogurt-based texture may separate or become grainy after thawing. For the best texture, eat it fresh; if you freeze leftovers, thaw them in the refrigerator and reheat gently while stirring.
Is Kese Soup a good meal during Ramadan?
Kese Soup can be a satisfying choice for iftar because it combines chicken with a yogurt-based broth. Serve it warm and pair it with lighter foods if you are following it with a larger meal.

What is Kese Soup?
Kese soup is a traditional Turkish soup made with yoghurt, flour and egg, with chicken added for substance. The yoghurt gives it a gentle tang, while the flour and egg help create a smooth, thick consistency; chicken makes the bowl more filling.
In Turkey, it is commonly served hot as part of a home-cooked lunch or dinner, either before the main course or as a light meal with bread. Its mild flavour also makes it easy to pair with a crisp salad. Nutritionally, it offers some protein from the chicken and yoghurt, with 4.2 grams per 100 grams. For a lighter serving, you can enjoy a smaller bowl alongside vegetables.
