Hopefully someone can help. What % brine solution are you using for Halloumi? and how long does it last? I have always directly salted the halloumi, however am wanting to use a brine solution to increase shelf life. Thanks in advance

If you are wanting to store your Halloumi over a longer period, you need to store it in a brine solution that will raise the salt content, normally applied to Halloumi.
For longer storage in the fridge, pack your Halloumi in jars and pour over a 8-10% brine solution. This should enable you to store your cheese for up to 4-5 months if the solution is right.
