Ezine cheese is a Turkish white cheese associated with the Ezine area of Çanakkale. Traditionally matured in brine, it is known for a distinctive savoury flavour and is often served at breakfast.
Ezine cheese may be made from a blend of sheep’s, goat’s and cow’s milk. The proportions can vary between products, so the name alone does not mean every Ezine cheese has the same milk blend.
No. Ezine cheese and feta are both brined white cheeses, but they come from different food traditions and may use different milk blends and production methods. Their flavour and texture can differ, so they are not always interchangeable.
Ezine cheese is savoury, tangy and creamy, with a firm texture that can crumble when cut. Its exact saltiness and richness vary by producer and milk blend, so taste a small piece before adding extra salt to a recipe.
Ezine cheese is commonly served in slices as part of a Turkish breakfast, alongside bread, olives and fresh vegetables. Its savoury flavour also works well in sandwiches or as part of a simple cheese plate.
Yes, Ezine cheese works in savoury pastries, omelettes and baked dishes. Since it can be salty and softens when heated, taste the filling before seasoning and pair it with milder ingredients such as unsalted cheese or vegetables.
Keep Ezine cheese refrigerated in a covered container, ideally in its original brine. Use clean utensils when serving and return it promptly to the fridge; leaving it exposed or at room temperature can shorten its usable life.
Yes, Ezine cheese can be frozen, but freezing may make its texture drier or more crumbly after thawing. It is usually better suited to cooked fillings after freezing than to serving in neat slices.
Discard Ezine cheese if it develops an unusual smell, slimy surface, unexpected colour changes or mould that is not part of the product. Do not taste it to check; keep it chilled and follow the storage directions on its packaging.
Not everyone with lactose intolerance can tolerate Ezine cheese. Aging can reduce lactose in cheese, but it does not guarantee the cheese is lactose-free; choose a product specifically labelled lactose-free if even a small amount causes symptoms.

Even a very small amount of Ezine cheese brings plenty of savoury flavour. This brined white cheese comes from the Ezine district of Çanakkale in north-western Turkey and is traditionally made with milk from sheep, goats and cows. It is tangy and salty, with a soft yet sliceable texture.
In Turkey, it is a familiar breakfast cheese, served with bread, olives and fresh vegetables, often alongside tea. It also works well crumbled into salads or tucked into pastries; taste before adding extra salt. Ezine cheese provides protein but is also rich in fat, so a small slice is a flavourful choice. Pair it with tomatoes and cucumber for a lighter plate.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
