I've never got into halloumi .. I can't make it out entirely. Maybe I should give it another shot

Try it. It's squeaky. Which reminds me ... Did you ever try leipäjuusto? Or did your love of all things Finnish not quite extend to finding Finnish cheese in Whitehaven?

Also known as Finnish squeaky cheese. Traditionally you have it with cloudberry jam.

Oh dear, I don't like the sound of it It doesn't taste at all goaty or I wouldn't like it. It has a mild, slightly nutty, salty taste but it's incredibly delicious when fried. You should try it!

I think I tried it raw which was maybe a mistake

Is it not usually eaten raw?

Is it not usually eaten raw? No, it's grilled or fried. It goes quite crispy on the outside, which is what makes it delicious! You could even use it to substitute for meat: images.app.goo.gl/SWmSHdPBC1H4csyeA

I'd give it another go, perhaps, but I'd have to ask Col to look for it
