Mild, creamy, and wonderfully versatile – Akawi Chikie and Akawi Baladi are staples of Middle Eastern cooking. Whether enjoyed fresh or baked in the oven, these traditional cheeses bring a delicate richness that complements both sweet and savoury dishes. To prepare, grate or slice thinly, then soak 2-3 times in cold water to draw out excess salt. Taste as you go, until the cheese reaches the level of saltiness you prefer.
