Domiati is a soft, salty white cheese from Egypt, matured in brine and used crumbled into salads, pastries, and breakfast spreads. One metric cup (250 ml) of drained, lightly crumbled domiati weighs around 240 grams or 8.47 ounces. A solid drained block sits closer to 250 grams per cup, while loosely crumbled cheese packs down to about 150 grams, so weighing in grams beats scooping when a recipe calls for it by volume.

Domiati carries brine and crumbles unevenly, so a cup can hold anywhere from 150 to 250 grams depending on how it is packed. Measuring by grams keeps the saltiness and texture consistent in fatayer, salads, and baked dishes.

Related Domiati Ingredients

Feta is the Greek counterpart to domiati: both are brined, crumbly white cheeses used in salads and pastries. Feta is lighter per cup (150 g vs 240 g) and made from sheep's milk, while domiati is milder and often made from cow or buffalo milk. Swap either way, but weigh rather than scoop as the densities differ. See our Feta converter.
