I love Halloumi... I buy it often.... I first discovered it in Cyprus more than 30 years ago.. but it;s regularly available here too..Halloumi..
Is a cheese of Cypriot origin made from a combination of
goat's and sheep's milk..sometimes cow's milk and has a high melting point.
Has anyone had...use?

I haven't had it, but I follow an older Australian guy who posts cheesemaking at home videos and sells related products. He's made that one a couple of times.

We don't eat it at home, but when we go to our favorite Greek restaurant, their Saganaki, halloumi cheese browned or deep-fried, then flambeed with ouzo or cognac, makes us swoon! Love it.

When reading a local magazine about Chef(s)..
one stated...he was approached by a farmer
who offered him Scotch Guinea Fowl eggs..
he said he would be happy to make a special dish.
Anybody heard of them?

I have never heard of it. Can it be found at my local grocer, or is it a specialty cheese??

As a bit of an information sponge I've explored a lot of things.
Meet Gavin Webber:
I find lots of weird things fascinating. Some of Gav's cheesemaking videos can lull me right to sleep.

Manuka honey
Is made in Australia and New Zealand
by bees that pollinate the lepto sternum
scoparium bush (also known as tea tree)
It has antibacterial, antioxidant and antiinflamatory prperties.
Looks rather expensive on Amazon.
Do our 'Aussie' and 'kiwi' friends want to tell us about this...what looks like a miracle product.
