Mish (or Mesh) is a centuries-old Egyptian staple – a strong, salty, and deeply flavoured fermented cheese. Traditionally made from aged local cheeses and ripened in clay jars with salt, chilli, and spices, Mish develops a sharp tang and a fiery warmth that sets it apart.

In Egyptian homes, it’s usually enjoyed with baladi bread, fresh tomatoes, spring onions, or a drizzle of olive oil, creating a rustic mezze experience. Its intense flavour makes it a brilliant condiment, dip, or spread, and it also pairs wonderfully with eggs, salads, or grilled meats. For those who love bold, funky cheeses, Mish is a true Middle Eastern treasure.

Extra Product Tips:

Best enjoyed at room temperature to allow the full flavour to develop. Pair with fresh herbs, tomatoes or cucumber to balance the intensity. Ideal for small portions and sharing.

  • Spread on warm flatbread with a sprinkle of fresh herbs.

  • Add to scrambled eggs or shakshuka for a spicy twist.

  • Mix with olive oil for a quick dip.

Great Paired With:

Baladi bread or Arabic flatbread

Extra virgin olive oil
