One of the most disappointing things at a Turkish grocery is the cheese section. (see below)
This sorry sight of Turkish diary aisle is not to say that the Turks, or more Istanbul-ites are averse to cheese. NO. they love cheese, Turks Love cheese almost as much as Yogurt, almost.
but its mild, its all very mild.
Turkish cheese is only best in the breakfast, where there is the white slightly salty cheese, Beyaz Peynir (white sheep's milk cheese), but still! its only good with all the other accouterments.. tomatoes fresh pide(pitaish bread) olives, and honey, sometimes if they feel like it they give you an egg, sometimes. Its delightful cheese i still can never find in the above grocery asile, creamy and delicious, perfect for the hangovers, perfect for the start of a day, ruling the empire, however small it may be.
but lets just say its no Vermont cheddar, its no fresh cheve,
where is the?
