Halloumi sticks are a delightful snack or appetizer inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, particularly Cypriot and Greek traditions. Crafted from halloumi cheese, this semi-hard, brined cheese is known for its high melting point, allowing it to be grilled or fried to a crispy golden perfection. The sticks are typically made by slicing halloumi into slender portions and lightly coating them before cooking, resulting in a crunchy exterior and a chewy, salty interior. Nutritionally, halloumi is a good source of protein and calcium, supporting muscle health and bone strength. However, it’s also high in sodium and saturated fats, so moderation is key. Often served with fresh herbs or a zesty dipping sauce, halloumi sticks offer a comforting balance of flavors and textures. Ideal for vegetarians, they provide a satisfying alternative to meat-based snacks while showcasing the bold flavors of the Mediterranean.
