Frequently Asked Questions About Full-Fat Lor Cheese
What is full-fat lor cheese?
Full-fat lor cheese is a fresh Turkish whey cheese made by heating whey until its proteins form soft curds. It is moist and crumbly rather than aged or sliceable like kaşar cheese, and is generally a minimally processed cheese.
How is full-fat lor cheese different from ricotta?
Full-fat lor cheese and ricotta are both fresh whey cheeses, but they are not identical. Their curd size, moisture, and richness vary with the cheesemaking method; lor is often more crumbly, while ricotta is commonly smoother and spoonable.
Is full-fat lor cheese the same as kaşar cheese?
No, full-fat lor cheese is not kaşar cheese. The name can be confusing, but lor is a fresh, soft whey cheese, whereas kaşar is a firmer cheese that is made from curds and typically aged.
How do you eat full-fat lor cheese?
You can eat full-fat lor cheese fresh, crumbled over bread or paired with tomatoes, cucumbers, herbs, and olives. It also works as a filling for pastries or as a topping; taste it first, since the saltiness can vary by producer.
Can you use full-fat lor cheese in börek?
Yes, full-fat lor cheese makes a good börek filling. Crumble it and mix it with egg and herbs such as parsley; if it seems very wet, drain it first so the filling does not make the pastry soggy.
Can you fry full-fat lor cheese?
Yes, you can cook full-fat lor cheese in a pan, but loose curds will not hold together like a slice of firm cheese. For easier frying, form the crumbled lor into small patties with egg and a little flour.
Can full-fat lor cheese replace cottage cheese?
Yes, full-fat lor cheese can replace cottage cheese in many savory recipes, though its texture may be finer or drier. Crumble it for fillings, or stir in a little milk if you need a softer, more spoonable mixture.
How should you store full-fat lor cheese after opening?
Keep full-fat lor cheese covered in the refrigerator after opening, using a clean utensil each time. Follow the package’s storage and use-by instructions, and discard it if you notice mold, an unusual color, or a sour smell.
Can you freeze full-fat lor cheese?
Yes, full-fat lor cheese can be frozen, but thawing may make it drier and more crumbly. Freeze it in airtight portions, thaw it in the refrigerator, and use it in cooked fillings or baked dishes where a change in texture matters less.
Does full-fat lor cheese contain lactose?
Yes, full-fat lor cheese may contain lactose, and the amount varies with how it is made. If you are lactose intolerant, try only a small amount or choose a lactose-free alternative; people with a milk allergy should avoid it.

What is Full-Fat Lor Cheese?
Full-fat lor cheese is a soft, fresh, slightly grainy Turkish whey cheese, traditionally made from the whey left after kaşar production. It has a mild, creamy taste and is served at Turkish breakfasts, plain or with herbs, alongside bread and tea. It also works well as a filling for börek and gözleme; outside Turkey, try it on toast or folded into a savoury pastry. It provides protein and calcium, but is relatively rich in fat: 100 g has 19.5 g. Pair a modest portion with fresh vegetables for a lighter meal, and taste it before adding salt to a recipe.
