I just took out of the freezer some butter which I bought, Turkish
"Teksut" tereyagi (tereyagi means butter as far as I know).

It smells like a very ripe cheese, but looks like a more-yellow-than-usual
butter.

Anyone had any experience with this product?
Thanks,

Oh, here's an image I took of the wrapper.

I don't even speak turkish, but the word "kulturu" in the ingredients
list suggests this is a cultured butter. If so, it's had bacteria
added to eat the lactose and produce flavor compounds. Apparently,
stinky ones. I suppose you'd have to find a turk who knows his
tereyagi to sniff it and tell you if it's good. The comedy plots write
themselves.
