Frequently Asked Questions About Low Ezine Cheese
What is low Ezine cheese?
Low Ezine cheese is a lower-fat version of Ezine-style Turkish white cheese, traditionally associated with the Ezine area of Çanakkale. It is usually eaten as a table cheese, though its exact milk blend and texture vary by producer.
Is low Ezine cheese the same as feta?
No, low Ezine cheese and feta are different cheeses, even though both are brined white cheeses. Ezine cheese is a Turkish regional style with its own production traditions; feta is Greek and has a distinct protected designation.
What does low Ezine cheese taste like?
Low Ezine cheese is typically salty, tangy and pleasantly savoury, with a firmer, less creamy feel than a full-fat version. The precise flavour depends on its milk blend, brining and how long it has been aged.
What milk is used in low Ezine cheese?
The milk blend in low Ezine cheese depends on the producer. Traditional Ezine cheese can use sheep’s, goat’s and cow’s milk, but a lower-fat product may use a different blend, so check the product’s ingredient details.
How is low Ezine cheese traditionally served?
Low Ezine cheese is commonly served in slices or crumbles as part of a Turkish breakfast, alongside bread, olives, tomatoes and cucumbers. Its savoury taste also works well with fresh herbs and simple salads.
Can you use low Ezine cheese instead of feta in a salad?
Yes, low Ezine cheese can stand in for feta in salads when you want a salty, brined cheese. Crumble it over the salad and taste before adding extra salt, since the cheese may already season the dish.
Does low Ezine cheese melt well?
Low Ezine cheese softens when heated but does not usually melt into the stretchy, smooth texture of mozzarella. It works better crumbled into fillings or scattered over baked dishes than used when you need a cheese-pull effect.
Can you use low Ezine cheese in börek?
Yes, low Ezine cheese is a practical filling for börek. Crumble it and combine it with herbs such as parsley; because the cheese is brined, taste the filling before adding salt or other salty ingredients.
How should you store low Ezine cheese after opening?
Keep low Ezine cheese refrigerated in a clean, covered container after opening. If it came packed in brine, storing it in that brine helps prevent it from drying out; discard it if you notice mould or an unusual smell.
Can low Ezine cheese be frozen?
Yes, you can freeze low Ezine cheese, but thawing may make its texture drier and more crumbly. It is generally better suited to cooked fillings after freezing than to serving in slices on a cheese board.
