Tulum

Tulum is a traditional Turkish cheese known for its crumbly texture and tangy flavor. Made primarily from sheep's milk, it is aged in goat or sheep skin bags, which contributes to its unique taste and texture. The cheese has a sharp, salty flavor with a hint of earthiness, making it a popular choice in Turkish cuisine. Tulum is often enjoyed as part of a meze platter or paired with fresh bread and olives. Its slightly creamy yet firm texture allows it to be grated over dishes or used in cooking to add depth to a variety of recipes. As it matures, Tulum develops a more pronounced flavor, making it a favorite among cheese enthusiasts.
