Nabulsiah Cheese

Nabulsi Cheese, or Jibneh Nabulsieh (جبنة نابلسية), is one of the most iconic cheeses of the Levant, originating from the ancient city of Nablus in Palestine. Known for its firm texture, salty flavor, and mild aroma, this cheese is deeply embedded in Middle Eastern culinary tradition — often served fried, grilled, or baked in desserts like knafeh.

Ingredients:

  • Pasteurized cow’s milk

  • Salt

  • Mastic (مسكة)

  • Mahlab (محلب)

  • Rennet (enzyme)

Taste & Texture:

Nabulsi Cheese is firm, brined, and slightly squeaky when fresh. It has a salty and subtly aromatic flavor, thanks to the traditional addition of mastic and mahlab, which give it its unmistakable character. When heated, it softens without melting, making it ideal for frying or stuffing into pastries.
