Low-fat tulum cheese Calories

Low-fat tulum cheese is a lighter version of tulum, a traditional Turkish cheese named for the skin container in which it was once matured. It is made from milk—often sheep’s, goat’s or cow’s milk, depending on the region—and is typically pale, crumbly and slightly grainy. Its flavour can range from pleasantly tangy to quite salty.

In Turkey, tulum is a familiar breakfast cheese, served with bread, tomatoes and olives; it also works crumbled over salads or tucked into pastries. For readers elsewhere, try it with fresh vegetables, flatbread or a simple salad. It is protein-rich and has less fat than full-fat tulum, though saltiness varies. Pair it with unsalted ingredients, and taste before adding extra salt to a dish.
