It originates from Cyprus and is known as a mediterranean cheese and is now popular all around the world.

You may have had this cheese before you were vegan and shallow pan-fried it or grilled it to turn this rubbery animal cheese in to a firmer and semi-toasted cheese for sandwiches or put in to salads.

But what if you are now vegan and are looking for vegan halloumi cheese that is made of plants instead of animals?
