Shilal — Syrian String Cheese

Shilal is a traditional cheese of the Levant, known for its soft, braided strands and gently milky flavour that invites sharing. Also called شلل (Shilal) in Arabic, this cheese is crafted to be pulled apart by hand, making it a centrepiece of mezze tables and family gatherings.

Mild, elastic, and delicately salted, Shilal pairs beautifully with olives, fresh herbs, and warm flatbread. Its unique texture and clean finish make it equally suited for light grilling, melting into pastries, or serving fresh as part of a curated cheese board.
