Keep it cold...

[Grill Queen]

I like to grill halloumi cheese for a Halloumi Caprese appetizer, but my big mistake last time was to leave the cheese out before grilling. It melted into a gooey mess all over the grill, so the lesson is to leave it in the fridge so it's nice and cold before you grill it!
Recipe:

1. Slice halloumi ¼ inch thick.
2. Coat with olive oil.
3. Keep refrigerated until you’re ready to cook.
4. Grill on high until char marked, turning once.
5. Serve with the salad of tomatoes, tossed with fresh mint, olive oil, lemon juice, and red wine vinegar.

Dang. I thought this was about beer. Good tip though.

Caprese is one of my all time favorites foods ever (except I prefer basil). To me it's the epitome of farm fresh. Thank you for posting this!

Agreed and I like a balsamic reduction on it.

[Huskee]

Attjack Yes! Balsamic, at least sitting there as an option, is a must.

MMmmm . . . caprese with grilled halloumi. It's not easy to get here, but it's sooo delicious.

Wisconsincheesemart has halloumi at a very reasonable price especially with a coupon and when they do shipping deals. It's absolutely my favorite cheese!
