Lor cheese and tulum cheese mix combines mild, soft lor with the tangier, saltier Turkish aged cheese tulum. It may be sold ready-made or mixed at home, and its texture and saltiness vary with the proportions and the cheeses used.
Use lor cheese and tulum cheese mix as a filling for gözleme or börek, or crumble it over a salad. Its salty, tangy taste pairs well with herbs such as parsley, and you may not need to add extra salt.
Yes, lor cheese and tulum cheese mix can replace feta in some recipes, especially fillings and salads. It is usually softer and more crumbly, with a distinctive tulum flavor, so taste it first and adjust the recipe’s salt.
No, lor cheese and tulum cheese mix does not melt into a smooth, stretchy layer like mozzarella. It softens and may become crumbly when heated, making it better suited to savory fillings and baked dishes than to grilled-cheese-style sandwiches.
Lor cheese and tulum cheese mix can taste salty because tulum is commonly a strongly salted, aged cheese. Blend in more unsalted lor to mellow it, and taste before adding salt to a recipe.
Yes, you can freeze lor cheese and tulum cheese mix, but thawing may make it wetter or more crumbly. Freeze it in an airtight container in portions, then use the thawed cheese in cooked fillings rather than relying on its original spreadable texture.
Keep lor cheese and tulum cheese mix tightly covered in the refrigerator and follow the package’s use-by and after-opening directions. A homemade mix is best used within a few days; discard it if it develops an unusual smell, color, or texture.
Yes, you can crumble lor cheese and tulum cheese mix into menemen near the end of cooking. It will soften rather than melt smoothly, so stir it in briefly and taste before seasoning because the tulum can already provide plenty of salt.
Add more mild lor to lor cheese and tulum cheese mix to soften its tang and saltiness. Fresh herbs can also balance the flavor, while adding more tulum will make the mixture sharper and more assertive.
Lor cheese and tulum cheese mix may contain lactose, and the amount varies with the cheeses and how they were made. If you are lactose intolerant, try only a small amount if you know you tolerate it; it is not suitable for a milk allergy.

Lor cheese and tulum cheese mix combines soft, crumbly lor with the saltier, more pronounced flavour of tulum. Lor is a fresh whey cheese, while tulum is a traditional Turkish cheese matured in different ways around the country; the exact character varies by region and maker.
In Turkey, the blend is often served at breakfast with bread, alongside eggs, or used in börek and gözleme fillings. Its contrast of mild and tangy, salty flavours also works well crumbled over salads or warm vegetables. It is a high-protein cheese blend, with 18.5 g of protein per 100 g. Because tulum can make it quite salty, a modest portion is satisfying; pair it with fresh tomatoes, cucumber and herbs for a lighter plate.
