About Halumi

Halloumi is a semi-hard, unripened cheese originating from Cyprus, traditionally made from a mix of goat's and sheep's milk, though modern varieties may include cow's milk. Known for its high melting point, halloumi can be fried or grilled without losing its shape, making it a versatile ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine. Nutritionally, halloumi is rich in protein, calcium, and essential fats, which can support bone health and muscle maintenance. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fat, which may require moderation for individuals watching their salt intake or heart health. Halloumi is a favorite among vegetarians as a meat substitute and can be enjoyed in salads, sandwiches, or as a standalone snack. While its nutritional profile offers benefits, balancing its consumption with other healthy options is key to maintaining a well-rounded diet.
