Description
Alambra Halloumi Cheese is an authentic Cypriot specialty crafted from a traditional blend of cow, sheep, and goat milk. Known for its unique high melting point, this 'squeaky' cheese maintains its shape when heated, making it the ultimate choice for grilling, pan-frying, or barbecuing. Each block is infused with a hint of dried mint, adding a refreshing note to its rich, savory profile. Perfect for a protein-packed suhoor, a vibrant Mediterranean salad, or as a satisfying addition to a vegetarian burger. Simply sear until golden brown to enjoy its signature crispy exterior and soft, chewy center. A versatile dairy staple that elevates everything from traditional Middle Eastern breakfasts to modern mezze spreads.
