What is Smoked curd cheese?
Smoked curd cheese is a smoked version of lor, a fresh Turkish cheese traditionally made from whey. Lor is usually soft and crumbly; smoking gives it a deeper aroma and a savoury, gently woody edge. It is not the same as a firm aged cheese, and its saltiness can vary by maker.
In Turkey, it can be served at breakfast with bread and eggs, crumbled over salads, or tucked into a sandwich. Elsewhere, try it anywhere you might use a fresh, crumbly cheese, especially with tomatoes, herbs or grilled vegetables. It is high in protein and relatively low in carbohydrates, so it can make a filling part of a meal; pair it with vegetables and use a modest amount if you want a lighter plate.
