Rumi cheese (Egyptian Arabic: جبنه رومى gebna Rumi [ɡebna rumi], also spelled roumi/roomi) is one of the main types of cheese in Egypt. Despite its name (Rūmī, literally, Roman), the cheese is Egyptian. Traces of it go back to the ancient Egyptians. It has a pungent smell, and different degrees of saltiness depending on the age.[1][2]
