Pınar Breakfast White Cheese 55% – 1 kg

This 1kg block is the sort of breakfast white cheese that quietly disappears from Turkish fridges every week. Pınar makes it specifically for the morning table, with a 55% fat level that gives a creamy, spreadable texture and a mild, milky flavour that suits everyone from toddlers to grandparents.

Made for the Turkish Breakfast Table

In Turkey, a weekend breakfast is less a meal than an event. The table fills up with small plates of olives, tomatoes, cucumber, honey, jam, eggs and fresh bread, and right in the middle sits a plate of white cheese. Supermarkets there sell a dedicated style labelled kahvaltılık peynir, literally cheese for breakfast, and that is exactly what this is: a cheese designed to be sliced and eaten as it is, rather than cooked.

Pınar is one of the best-known names in Turkish dairy, and its products are a familiar sight in kitchens across the country. Their Pınar white cheese is known for consistency, so you know what you are getting every time you open a new pack.

What 55% Fat Means for Flavour

Turkish white cheese is sold at different fat levels, and the number on the label makes a real difference. Lower-fat versions are firmer and saltier, while higher levels feel richer and softer. At 55%, this cheese sits comfortably in the middle. It is a soft white cheese that slices neatly but spreads easily on warm bread, with enough creaminess to balance the brine and a fresh, gentle tang.

• Creamy, smooth texture that is easy to slice or spread
• Mild flavour that suits children and adults
• Generous 1kg pack for families and regular use
• Ready to eat straight from the fridge

Serving Ideas for Breakfast White Cheese

The Classic Plate

Slice the cheese, add a few black and green olives, tomato wedges, cucumber batons and a sprig of parsley. Drizzle everything with olive oil and serve with simit, crusty bread or toasted pide, plus a pot of strong black tea. Add a boiled egg and a spoonful of honey or rose jam and you have the full spread that Turkish families enjoy on a slow Sunday morning.

Beyond Breakfast

Mash with chopped dill and a little yoghurt for a quick dip. Spread it on toast and top with honey and walnuts for a sweet and salty snack. Crumble over pasta, roasted vegetables or a tomato and onion salad when you want a lighter alternative to feta. It also works well inside a warm toastie with tomato slices and a few leaves of fresh basil.

Storage

Keep refrigerated at all times. After opening, store the remaining cheese submerged in its brine, or in lightly salted water, in a sealed container. This stops the surface drying out and helps it keep its texture until the date shown on the pack. Contains milk.
