Frequently Asked Questions About Manyar Cheese
What is Manyar cheese?
Manyar cheese is a traditional Turkish cheese made from sheep’s milk. It has a salty, intense flavour, so a small amount can add a pronounced taste to a breakfast plate or a cooked dish.
What does Manyar cheese taste like?
Manyar cheese tastes distinctly salty and strongly flavoured. Pair it with milder foods such as fresh vegetables or plain bread, and reduce added salt when using it in a recipe.
How is Manyar cheese made?
Manyar cheese is made by curdling sheep’s milk, draining the curds and salting them. It is minimally processed in its traditional form, although the exact method and finished texture can vary between producers.
How do you eat Manyar cheese?
You can eat Manyar cheese with bread and fresh vegetables, or crumble it into a meal. Its assertive flavour makes it useful as a small, flavourful addition rather than a mild cheese to eat in large amounts.
Is Manyar cheese the same as feta?
No, Manyar cheese is not simply another name for feta. Manyar is a Turkish sheep’s-milk cheese known for its salty, intense flavour; feta has its own regional styles and can differ in texture and taste.
Can you use Manyar cheese instead of feta in a recipe?
Yes, Manyar cheese can replace feta in some recipes, but its flavour may be saltier and more intense. Start with less than the recipe calls for, taste the dish, and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Does Manyar cheese melt well?
Manyar cheese may soften when heated, but its melting behaviour can vary with its texture and how it is made. It is safest to test a small amount first when using it as a topping or filling.
How should you store Manyar cheese after opening?
Keep Manyar cheese refrigerated in a tightly closed container or its original packaging. Use a clean utensil each time and reseal it promptly to help prevent the exposed surface from drying out.
Can you freeze Manyar cheese?
Yes, you can freeze Manyar cheese, though thawing may make it crumbly or alter its texture. Use thawed cheese in cooked dishes or fillings, where a change in texture is less noticeable.
Is Manyar cheese suitable for people with lactose intolerance?
Do not assume Manyar cheese is lactose-free: its lactose content can vary with production and maturation. If you are sensitive to lactose, check product-specific information and choose a suitable alternative if needed.

What is Manyar Cheese?
Manyar Cheese is a traditional Turkish cheese made from sheep’s milk, known for its pronounced, salty flavour. It can be served in slices or crumbled at breakfast, alongside bread, tomatoes and olives; a cup of tea makes a familiar companion. Because its taste is assertive, a little can go a long way, especially when the rest of the meal includes other salty foods.
It provides protein but is also rich in fat, so it suits a filling breakfast or a small savoury accent better than a very light meal. Try crumbling some over a salad or mixing a modest amount into a pastry filling to spread its distinctive flavour through the dish.
