Turkey is not a "dairy
country" like
Holland or Denmark. Milk (süt) and
milk products (süt ürünleri,
such as peynir, cheese)
play an important part in the Turkish
diet,
but they
are not used in most foods.
You will
see milk mostly in the form of yogurt,
white sheeps'-milk cheese ("feta,"
or beyaz peynir in Turkish),
and yellow cheese (kashar peynir).
France may be the land of 500 cheeses,
but in Turkey you'll see mostly these
two.
Traditional Turkish bread is a
sourdough loaf, and so far as I know
does not
contain milk or milk products.
