warm non and qaymoq

you are all so jealous of me and don't even know it!

I went to Forest Hills/Rego Park in NYC and got the ONLY fresh Uzbek bread that can be had in the country. My breakfast is warm non with qaymoq (the breakfast I always have on my first morning when I go to UZ).

YUM!

Is qaymoq cheese? Just wondering if it's the same as "kaymak" which is a Turkish cheese I know and love.

Yum!!

qaymoq is sweet cream, like a mild sour cream - it's more liquid than what we get in the states. (qaymoq literally means cream)
