Across the pages of this book, Artun Ünsal first delves into the historical developments that led to the emergence of cheese in Anatolia, before detailing every possible extant cheese variety and production technique region by region, and eventually chronicles dishes and desserts unique to Turkish cuisine, whose preparation involves cheese as a backbone ingredient.
