Frequently asked questions
Is the halloumi likely to stick?▾
A well-preheated waffle maker and a very thin coating of oil help prevent sticking; avoid moving the cheese too soon.
How should this recipe be stored?▾
Halloumi is best immediately after cooking. Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat briefly.
