About Tulum peyniri

Tulum Peyniri is a traditional Turkish cheese made primarily from sheep’s milk, though variations with goat or cow’s milk exist. Its production involves fermenting the cheese in goat, sheep, or synthetic sacks, which gives it its distinct tangy flavor and crumbly texture. Originating from Turkey, particularly the eastern and Aegean regions, it is a staple in Turkish cuisine and is often enjoyed as part of breakfast spreads, in salads, or alongside fresh bread. Tulum Peyniri is rich in protein, calcium, and healthy fats, which support bone health and muscle function. However, it is high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is recommended, particularly for those with sodium-sensitive conditions. Its aged and unprocessed nature makes it a flavorful alternative to highly processed cheeses, appealing to those seeking whole, traditional foods. Enjoy it as a versatile addition to meals or snacks, while keeping portion sizes in mind for balance.
