Nabulsi is a traditional Palestinian brined cheese named after the city of Nablus in the West Bank. It is made from a blend of goat's and sheep's milk and is shaped into rectangular blocks or cylinders. The cheese is semi-hard and dense, white or light cream in colour and salty in flavour, and the source describes it as a cheese produced for centuries. Because it does not melt easily it suits grilling or frying, and it is widely used in Middle Eastern cooking. It is also popular in Syria, Lebanon and Jordan. The name is also spelled Naboulsi or Naboulsieh.
