How are we "incompatible" if we can make it better? :roll:


Fakes and copies are never as good as the genuine.

Haloumi is recognised the world wide.

Hellim sounds like a ballon filled with gas!


The fact is that even so many GCs buy their Hellims from North... not only because it's nearly the half price of the GC ones but also tastes far better than the GC ones...

As for the olives, I most like 2 varieties of Gemlik olives... Actually, i don't eat other olives with full enjoyment...

Kuru Sele — this is dried in a basket of rock salt, which draws all the water from the olive. The longer the olive is left in the salt the firmer the olive becomes. The olive can lose up to half its original weight during curing, giving a crinkly effect. This is a dry store olive and is the least salty tasting. A dry cured Gemlik olive is a premium olive that carries a high price tag. It is primarily ordered before picking and really is reserved for those high class establishments in Istanbul.

Cross Kuru Sele/Yagli Sele — this is partly dry cured, then put through the Yagli Sele process, which leaves a crinkly slightly bitter olive. This is also dry stored. These are only cured for personal use by the growers.

Once you taste it, you will know what means a delicious black olive and why it is called
the Caviar of Mediterranean!"

They buy the surplus milk from the EU and mix it with the genuine product to make plastic Hellim that tastes of nothing and sell it to the world as real and even convince themselves!!!! Same as that Greek yogurt shit......I am not objecting to the Greek part but the tasteless mess that it is....

Thank God "lountza" and "shiromeri" are made with pork. Otherwise the Turks would try to claim them as theirs as well. :roll: :lol:
