Frequently Asked Questions About Tulum Cheese Omelette
What is a tulum cheese omelette?
A tulum cheese omelette is an egg omelette filled with tulum, a traditional Turkish cheese that is typically crumbly and boldly flavored. The cheese seasons the eggs as it warms, so the dish usually needs little or no added salt.
How do you make a tulum cheese omelette?
To make a tulum cheese omelette, beat the eggs, fold in crumbled tulum cheese, and cook the mixture in a lightly greased pan over moderate-low heat. Take it off the heat while the eggs are just set to keep them tender.
Does tulum cheese melt in an omelette?
Tulum cheese softens in an omelette, but it usually does not melt into the stretchy, smooth layer you get with some melting cheeses. Its texture and melting behavior vary by style, so expect little creamy pockets or softened crumbles.
Is tulum cheese too salty for an omelette?
Tulum cheese can make an omelette quite salty, but the saltiness varies between cheeses. Taste the cheese before cooking and start with a modest amount; season the eggs only after tasting the finished mixture.
What is the difference between a tulum cheese omelette and a feta omelette?
A tulum cheese omelette tends to have a stronger, more aged and earthy cheese flavor, while a feta omelette is usually tangy and moist. Both cheeses can be crumbled into eggs, but their saltiness and texture differ by variety.
Which type of tulum cheese is best for a tulum cheese omelette?
A crumbly tulum cheese with a flavor you enjoy works best in a tulum cheese omelette. Turkish tulum styles vary in sharpness, moisture, and salt, so taste yours first and adjust how much you add rather than salting the eggs automatically.
Can you add herbs to a tulum cheese omelette?
Yes, parsley, dill, or chives can be added to a tulum cheese omelette. Fold finely chopped herbs into the beaten eggs or scatter them over the omelette near the end of cooking for a fresh contrast to the cheese.
What should you serve with a tulum cheese omelette?
Serve a tulum cheese omelette with fresh tomatoes, cucumber, olives, and bread for a simple Turkish-style breakfast. Since the cheese brings a strong savory flavor, fresh vegetables make a particularly good counterpoint.
How do you keep a tulum cheese omelette fluffy?
Cook a tulum cheese omelette gently over moderate-low heat and stop when the eggs are just set. High heat and prolonged cooking make the eggs firm and dry; beating them until frothy is not necessary.
Can you put tomatoes in a tulum cheese omelette?
Yes, tomatoes work in a tulum cheese omelette, though their juice can make the eggs watery. Cook the chopped tomatoes in the pan first until some moisture evaporates, then add the egg and crumbled tulum cheese.

What is Tulum Cheese Omelette?
Tulum Cheese Omelette combines eggs cooked in a pan with crumbled Turkish tulum cheese. Tulum is a traditional Turkish cheese whose flavour and texture vary by region; it is often firm, crumbly and boldly savoury. The cheese softens into the eggs as they cook, giving the omelette a richer taste than a plain version.
In Turkey, it makes a hearty breakfast, often served with bread, fresh vegetables and tea; it also works well for brunch elsewhere. It is protein-rich, with 14.5 g per 100 g. Since tulum can be quite salty, taste before adding salt, and pair the omelette with tomatoes or greens for a fresher, lighter plate.
