About Halummi

Halloumi is a semi-hard, unripened cheese originating from Cyprus, traditionally made from goat's and sheep's milk, though cow's milk is often used in modern versions. Known for its high melting point, halloumi is ideal for grilling or frying, which gives it a distinct golden crust while maintaining a chewy texture. It is common in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, enjoyed as part of salads, sandwiches, or served on its own. Rich in protein and calcium, halloumi supports bone health and muscle function. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fats, making moderation important, especially for heart health. Halloumi is a versatile choice for vegetarians seeking protein-rich options, but its saltiness and caloric density should be considered in balanced diets. Opting for low-fat versions or pairing it with fresh vegetables can enhance its health benefits while maintaining its unique flavor and texture.
