East Mediterranean semi-hard, unripened brined cheese
Halloumi or haloumi is a cheese that originated in Cyprus. It is made from a mixture of goat's and sheep's milk, and sometimes also cow's milk. Its texture is described as squeaky. It has a high melting point and so can easily be fried or grilled, a property that makes it a popular meat substitute. Rennet (mostly vegetarian or microbial) is used to curdle the milk in halloumi production, although no acid-producing bacteria are used in its preparation. Halloumi is popular throughout the Eastern Mediterranean.
