Greek cheeses, Feta, Halloumi, graviera...
A mild, semi-hard cheese made from goat's and sheep's milk, Halloumi has an amazing ability to retain its shape and not melt when cooked. It can therefore be eaten fresh, grilled or fried, in salads or as an accompaniment to traditional Cypriot main courses.
The authenticity of the Greek terroir for a Mediterranean signature in the kitchen.
Feta Palios, selected by Le Delas' Atelier BOF, is a traditional Greek cheese with Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status. Produced using ancestral methods from a balanced blend of 80% sheep's milk and 20% goat's milk, it offers a firm yet melt-in-the-mouth texture. Its pure white colour and distinctive flavour, characterised by a slight acidity and perfectly balanced saltiness, make it a key ingredient for catering professionals seeking an authentic and versatile product.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Culinary applications: This 1 kg block is ideal for precise cutting, whether into regular cubes for traditional Greek salads, slices for grilling (feta saganaki) or crumbled generously over pizzas and savoury tarts. Its ability to hold its shape during cooking also makes it suitable for use in vegetable fillings or crispy pastries such as spanakopita.
► Preparation: To bring out the subtlety of its milky flavours, it is advisable to take it out of the fridge a few minutes before serving. If you wish to reduce its saltiness for certain delicate dishes, you can rinse it lightly under clean water before use.
► Storage: A fresh product that must be kept in the fridge at between 0°C and +2°C to maintain its organoleptic qualities. Sold in a tub, it must remain submerged in its original brine after opening to prevent the pastry from drying out and to preserve its freshness.
