What is Halloumi cheese?
The cheese is white, with a distinctive layered texture, similar to mozzarella, and has a salty flavour.
It is used in cooking, as it can be fried until brown without melting due to its higher-than-normal melting point, making it a good cheese for frying or grilling (such as in saganaki), as an ingredient in salads, or fried and served with vegetables.
