I recently found out that paneer also works, at 1/4 the price, just needs a little salt.

I may have gone through a few 1kg blocks recently....

I haven't heard of haloumi, what is it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Haloumi is Squeeky cheese

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It’s cheese from Cyprus that fries without melting and has a neat squeaky feeling when you chew it. It’s perfect sliced and sauteed in a skillet with some butter. Finish it with some lemon juice for the traditional Cypriot style. The dense texture makes it ideal for tossing into salads. Fucking love halloumi.

I had a cheese once at a greek/breakfast place in my hometown that they brought out on a sizzling skillet, poured liquor on, lit on fire, then doused with lemon juice. Was that perhaps the same? I think they called it "saganaki" or something similar though (no idea about correct spelling)

Saganaki is just a Greek appetizer made of frying cheeses, sometimes including halloumi, but not necessarily. The way you describe it is one typical way it’s prepared.

My ideal salad is a bowl of Hidden Valley ranch with a sprinkling of lettuce, carrots, and croutons

Duke's mayo doesn't count as mayo

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Looks awesome! I’ve done similar salads and found that a pomegranate reduction is the perfect dressing for this type of combo. Think it’s time for another lunch…

This looks fly af.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Halloumi is awesome!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

Where can i buy one

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

I wonder how it'd be if I substituted the peaches with fig slices (or some other non-peach fruit) I'm not crazy about peaches
