Frequently Asked Questions About Tulum cheese (mixed milk)
What is mixed-milk Tulum cheese?
Mixed-milk Tulum cheese is a traditional Turkish cheese made from more than one type of animal milk and aged until its flavor becomes pronounced. Its texture and exact milk blend vary by producer and region; it is often firm and crumbly.
What does mixed-milk Tulum cheese taste like?
Mixed-milk Tulum cheese usually tastes savory, salty, and tangy, with a deeper flavor than a mild fresh cheese. The exact taste changes with the milk blend and aging, so one producer’s cheese may be sharper or more aromatic than another’s.
What kinds of milk are used in mixed-milk Tulum cheese?
Mixed-milk Tulum cheese can combine sheep’s, goat’s, and cow’s milk in different proportions. The name does not specify one fixed recipe, so the blend—and the flavor it creates—can differ between producers.
How is mixed-milk Tulum cheese traditionally made?
Mixed-milk Tulum cheese is made by curdling milk, draining and salting the curds, then aging the cheese. Traditional methods and aging containers vary across Turkey; some versions are associated with maturation in animal-skin bags, while others use different containers.
Is mixed-milk Tulum cheese similar to feta?
Mixed-milk Tulum cheese and feta are both salty cheeses, but they are not the same. Tulum is generally aged and more crumbly, while feta is typically stored in brine and stays more moist; their flavors and textures vary by producer.
How do you serve mixed-milk Tulum cheese?
Mixed-milk Tulum cheese is often served crumbled or sliced with bread, olives, and fresh vegetables. You can also scatter it over salads or add it to warm pasta; taste the dish before adding extra salt because the cheese is already salty.
Does mixed-milk Tulum cheese melt well?
Mixed-milk Tulum cheese softens when heated but may not melt into a smooth, stretchy layer. Crumble it into pastries, flatbreads, or warm pasta, where its salty flavor works well even if the cheese keeps some of its texture.
How should you store mixed-milk Tulum cheese?
Store mixed-milk Tulum cheese in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Use a clean utensil each time and close the container promptly to limit drying and odor absorption; discard it if you notice mold or signs of spoilage.
Can you freeze mixed-milk Tulum cheese?
Yes, mixed-milk Tulum cheese can be frozen, but thawing may make it drier and more crumbly. Divide it into portions before freezing so you only thaw what you need, and use thawed cheese in cooked dishes or crumbled over food.
What can you use instead of mixed-milk Tulum cheese?
A salty, crumbly cheese such as feta can stand in for mixed-milk Tulum cheese in salads or fillings, though the flavor will differ. For a closer match, choose an aged Turkish cheese with a similarly firm texture and adjust added salt to taste.

What is Tulum cheese (mixed milk)?
Tulum cheese (mixed milk) is a traditional Turkish cheese made with a blend of milks and left to mature, sometimes in a skin and sometimes in other containers. Its exact character varies by region and producer, but it is typically strongly flavoured, salty and slightly tangy, with a firm yet crumbly texture.
In Turkey it is often served at breakfast with bread, olives and fresh vegetables, or as part of a meze spread. It also pairs well with walnuts or melon, whose sweetness balances its savouriness. This is a protein-rich cheese—about 24 g per 100 g—but it is also rich in fat and salt, so a modest portion alongside vegetables makes a satisfying addition to a meal.
