In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of potatoes sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Beyaz peynir is Turkey's everyday brined white cheese, similar to feta, made from cow's, sheep's or goat's milk. It is the heart of a Turkish breakfast, eaten with tomatoes, cucumber, olives and bread, and crumbled into börek.

A matchbox-sized piece is about one portion, and reduced-fat versions have noticeably different numbers.
