Cheese & Upper Egypt specialities
Mallawi cheese, fresh — 1 kg
215 EGP / kg
Mallawi cheese from Mallawi in Minya at the start of its life, before ageing sharpens it. Firm but softer than the aged wheel, milder and less salty — the easiest way into Upper Egyptian cheese if you have not had it before, and the version children usually prefer. Good sliced for breakfast with bettaw or shamsi bread, folded into fiteer and pastries since it melts gently, or grated over fava beans and salads. Keep it refrigerated, well wrapped or in a sealed box; if you would rather age it yourself, a cool dry spot will deepen the salt and the flavour over time. Also available aged, and as a 4 kg wheel.
