  1. ? Basil-Infused Haloumi Cheese – A Taste of the Mediterranean in Every Bite! Welcome to the next level of cheesy indulgence — the Basil Haloumi Cheese, a fresh twist on a classic, born in the heart of Australia. This semi-hard, light yellow cheese is perfectly layered, uniquely textured, and beautifully infused with the aromatic essence of dried basil. Whether you're grilling it to a golden crisp or slicing it into a salad, this haloumi delivers a bold flavour and hearty bite that satisfies vegetarians, foodies, and flavour seekers alike.

  2. ? What is Basil Haloumi Cheese? Haloumi cheese is a traditional Cypriot cheese known for its semi-hard texture and exceptional ability to hold its shape when cooked. Our Basil Haloumi takes this classic to the next level — we’ve infused it with freshly dried basil leaves to enhance its natural savouriness and give it a herbaceous, Mediterranean flair. The result? A cheese that’s creamy on the inside, slightly salty, and bursts with the refreshing taste of basil. It’s a sensory delight that pairs perfectly with your favourite veggies, flatbreads, and grilled meats. ? Grilled, Fried, or Fresh – How to Enjoy Basil Haloumi One of haloumi’s most magical qualities is its high melting point — it doesn’t melt into a puddle like most cheeses. That means you can grill it, fry it, or toss it on the BBQ without losing its shape or texture. Here's how to make the most of your basil haloumi: ? Pan-Fried to Perfection Slice the haloumi and toss it onto a hot, dry skillet. In just minutes, you’ll get a crispy golden crust with a warm, gooey center. ? BBQ Grilled Goodness Skewer thick chunks with vegetables and grill until you see those delicious char lines. It's a BBQ favourite! ? Fresh in Salads Add uncooked slices into Mediterranean-style salads for a chewy, salty burst that pairs beautifully with olives, tomatoes, and lemony dressings. ? Tacos, Wraps & Flatbreads Use grilled haloumi as a meat substitute in wraps, pita pockets, or tacos. Basil adds a herby twist that meat can't match. ? Gourmet Sandwiches Stack it high with tomatoes, cucumber, and roasted peppers in a ciabatta roll for a warm, cheesy sandwich that's bursting with flavour.
