"halloumi cheese" news and stories

Grilled cheese? Sure, it's American cheese between two slices of buttered Wonder white, "grilled" in a frying pan, right? Not if you're Heidi from 101 Cookbooks, who grilled cheese, literally.

The cheese is called halloumi and originates from the island of Cyprus. Traditionally made from both goat's and sheep's milk, Heidi's find in San Francisco is all sheep's milk. She grilled the slices of cheese, which unlike regular cheeses, can somehow stand up to very high heats, then used the slices as a base for a green bean salad.
