Breakfast

A proper Turkish breakfast spreads across the whole table at once, and this range covers everything that goes into that spread, from crumbly white cheese to jars of olives, warm simit and jars of tahini. It brings together household names such as Yorem, Marmarabirlik, Yayla, Koska and Bagci Zeytinleri for kitchens across the UK.

What is in the range

Organised into Ready Pastries, Olives, Sweet Breakfast and Pastes sub-categories, this is one of the largest ranges on the site with over 460 products. Cheese is a core part of it, with Pinar's 60% and full fat lux feta cheese in 1500gr tubs, Sutdiyari's 60% fat white cheese, Melis Edirne cheese and Muratbey's shallal cheese all sold in generous, family-sized packs. Oncu's XL black olives in a 1000gr tub sit alongside fresh bakery items such as Maun's simit and Turkish baton bagel, plus daily fresh acma from the in-house bakery selection. Koska's sesame paste tahini and Efepasa's Kangal sucuk complete a table that covers savoury, bread and cured meat needs in one order.

How to choose, store and use

Feta and white cheeses keep best refrigerated and in their own brine where the tub allows, which also keeps the texture right for slicing at the table. Olives should stay covered in their own liquid once opened, kept in the fridge, and used within a couple of weeks for the best flavour. Tahini can separate over time, so give the jar a good stir before spreading it on bread or using it in a sauce. Fresh bread and simit are best eaten within a day or two, or frozen and toasted later; sucuk keeps well chilled and is typically pan-fried before serving alongside eggs.
