Frequently Asked Questions About Muhlama with sucuk
How do you make muhlama with sucuk?
Muhlama with sucuk is made by browning the sucuk, then cooking it with butter, cornmeal, water and melting cheese. Stir the cornmeal briefly in the butter, add the water and cheese, and cook gently until the mixture is smooth and stretchy.
What cheese is used in muhlama with sucuk?
Traditionally, muhlama with sucuk is best made with kolot, a melting cheese from Turkey’s Black Sea region. If you cannot find it, use another cheese that melts and stretches well, such as Turkish string cheese; reduce added salt if the cheese is salty.
What is the difference between muhlama with sucuk and kuymak?
Muhlama with sucuk is a version of muhlama that includes Turkish sucuk, a spiced sausage. Muhlama and kuymak share a basic combination of cornmeal, butter and cheese, but their names and small recipe differences vary across the Black Sea region.
Why is muhlama with sucuk not stretchy?
Muhlama with sucuk usually fails to stretch when the cheese does not melt smoothly or the mixture gets too hot. Choose a good melting cheese and stir it in over low heat; prolonged cooking can make the cheese firm rather than glossy and stretchy.
Should you cook the sucuk before adding it to muhlama?
Yes, brown the sucuk briefly before adding it to muhlama. This releases its spiced flavor into the pan and cooks the sausage through; since sucuk renders fat, account for that when deciding how much butter to use.
Where does muhlama with sucuk come from?
Muhlama with sucuk is a variation of muhlama, a dish associated with Turkey’s Black Sea region, especially the eastern part. The sucuk is an addition to the region’s familiar cornmeal-and-cheese preparation, making this version a richer breakfast dish.
What do you serve with muhlama with sucuk?
Muhlama with sucuk is usually served hot with bread, which is useful for scooping up its melted cheese. Cornbread or fresh crusty bread works well, and it is often part of a Turkish-style breakfast with tea.
Can you store and reheat leftover muhlama with sucuk?
Yes, refrigerate leftover muhlama with sucuk in a covered container once it has cooled. Reheat it gently in a pan, stirring often; add a small splash of water if it has thickened, since the cheese firms as it cools.
Why is muhlama with sucuk so oily?
Muhlama with sucuk can look oily because both the butter and the sucuk release fat as they cook. Brown the sucuk first and pour off some rendered fat before adding the other ingredients; keep enough butter for the cornmeal and cheese to combine.
Can you make muhlama with sucuk without cornmeal?
Yes, but muhlama with sucuk made without cornmeal will not have the usual texture or taste. Cornmeal thickens the butter and water and helps bind the melted cheese, so reducing the amount is a closer alternative than leaving it out entirely.

What is Muhlama with sucuk?
Muhlama with sucuk brings together muhlama, a hot, stretchy cheese dish from Turkey’s Black Sea region, and slices of spiced sucuk. It is usually made with cornmeal, butter and a locally available melting cheese, stirred until creamy and served straight from the pan.
In Turkey it is a hearty breakfast, eaten by dipping bread into the molten mixture and often enjoyed with tea. Outside the region, it also makes a rich brunch or sharing dish. The cheese and sucuk give it protein, while butter and sausage make it high in fat and filling. For a lighter plate, use less butter and sucuk, and serve it with fresh tomatoes or greens.
