Haloumi Cheese

Haloumi cheese is a semi-hard, unripened cheese originating from Cyprus, known for its firm, chewy texture and high melting point. Made primarily from goat and sheep milk, it retains its shape when cooked, making it ideal for grilling or frying. Its flavor is salty and tangy, with a slightly nutty undertone. Popular in Mediterranean cuisine, haloumi is often served grilled, added to salads, or eaten as a snack. Its unique ability to retain texture under heat makes it versatile and distinctive among cheeses.
