Hi,
I regularly buy cheap grated cheese - mainly cheddar and mozzarella - when its reduced/on offer and put it in the freezer. - its fine once defrosted for using on hm pizza and in cooking, soups etc, and have used it on sandwiches with no problems or change to taste ...
ive not frozen haloumi before and wondered if anyone has and what it was like once defrosted? ive got a couple of packets that I got reduced from the supermarket - I was going to use them this weekend but it will mess up my meal plan, so if they can be frozen i'll use them after next week ...


thanks :)

    I've never frozen it but to be honest it's so tough and rubbery (in a good way!) that I can't see freezing it making any difference in terms of texture. I would try and use it as soon as possible from the freezer though, I don't think it'd freeze very well for months and months.

    It`s fine frozen in slices. I just dry fry as usual and there is no difference
