Our Top Tip: Get Creative with Your Halloumi!

Halloumi is easy to prepare and a delicious addition to many meals.

Grilled: Slice the cheese about 7mm thick and grill or pan-fry until golden brown on both sides. Serve hot.

Snack: Cut into cubes and pan-fry with a little oil until golden. It's a perfect on-the-go snack.

The Perfect Pairings

The ham's salty and nutty notes are a perfect match for a crisp, acidic white wine like a Sauvignon Blanc or an Italian Pinot Grigio. For red wine lovers, a light-bodied, fruity Pinot Noir or a rustic Beaujolais will complement the ham without overpowering it.

Beer: A crisp, clean Lager or a classic Pilsner works well, as the carbonation and light body cleanse the palate. For a richer pairing, try a malty Amber Ale.

Cheese: The saltiness of the ham brings out the best in a variety of cheeses. Serve it with a fresh, soft cheese like Mozzarella or Burrata. For a more rustic pairing, a hard cheese like Comté or a tangy Goat Cheese is an excellent choice.

Fruits: The sweetness of fresh fruit is a perfect contrast to the ham's saltiness. Serve with sliced melon, figs, or pears. A drizzle of honey can also enhance the experience.
