The carton names this cheese Mandra peyniri, Bauernkäse and farmer's cheese, and this 400 g Best Farm pack is listed as a white brined cow's milk cheese. Its 'Premium Quality' carton carries a halal mark. White brined cheeses like this are semi-soft and sliceable, with a clean, salty, slightly tangy taste that is central to a Turkish breakfast.
Serve it in thick slices with tomatoes, cucumbers, olives and warm bread, crumble it over a shepherd's salad, or use it as the filling for börek, gözleme and pide. In summer, cubes of it make a classic pairing with chilled watermelon.
Keep it refrigerated, and if the cheese tastes too salty for your liking, soak it in cold water or milk for a short while before serving. Follow the storage and use-by information printed on the carton, and check the pack label for the full ingredient list, allergen and nutrition information before use.
