Grilled Halloumi is a delicious semi-hard cheese originating from Cyprus, traditionally made from a blend of goat's and sheep's milk. Known for its high melting point, it’s ideal for grilling or frying, delivering a golden, crispy exterior with a tender, chewy center. Rich in protein and calcium, halloumi supports muscle health and bone strength, making it a satisfying addition to a balanced diet. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fats, so moderation is key. Popular in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, its savory, mildly salty flavor pairs well with fresh salads, roasted vegetables, and whole grains. For a lighter option, look for reduced-sodium or lower-fat varieties. Its versatility and unique texture make it a favorite for both meat-eaters and vegetarians seeking a flavorful, nutrient-rich protein source.
