More to come in the Cheese thread of the year.
I thought that one was familiar ... Win for Lebanese cuisine!

It's great to be eaten raw, donno what you're talking about, really good with peach jam, or just with tomatoes if the raw Halloum is very salty. If you don't like extra salt, just keep it for an hour or two under the water, the cheese becomes sweeter and very tasty. That is actually my favorite kind of cheese.

We eat grilled Halloum every good morning ... or every day we have the time to grill them. If not, raw is the answer.
It's eatable in a dozen of different ways, it gets very different each time ... it's a pretty practical cheese.

me too just soak it in water for a few minutes, and wash the salt away. (or you can just buy the "low salt" ones)

some of my favorites...


feta


camembert


romano

i'm usually not that big a fan of hard cheeses like parmesan, but there's something about romano that rings well with me. delicious on Italian foods.

I love freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano on just about anything: pasta, salads, soups, in risotto.

This thread inspired me to bring a Brie and green apple on a baguette sandwich to work today.

there is one thing i'm confused about -- is it supposed to be a goat cheese? because i've tasted some pungent stuff marketed as feta and it tasted more like gorgonzola than what i typically associate with feta. not nearly as good as what i'm used to.

I'm not sure. I'm not a huge goat cheese fan at all, but I love feta. I also enjoy brie and Manchego
