There's shit halloumi aka hellim in the UK — it's never good... but at least it's there... but there's no anari/nor which is sad since it's, better IMHO, a byproduct of making halloumi/hellim.

I was able to find anari in London. It’s sometimes promoted as Cypriot Ricotta since not many people know anari or nor. Not the best though. Definitely not as good as fresh village anari

Yeah... not surprised... this is also ridiculously good. I am scared to open the fridge as I might eat it all. And then I guess I die of cholesterol.

No idea how it compares to the proper Cypriot stuff, but this might be better than average quality for the UK (the owner is Syrian). They call it "ricotta" but as their main product is a halloumi-style cheese it might be closer to anari. https://yorkshiredamacheese.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=33 …

I think that's actual ricotta (based on the photos)!

Anari can be sliced and doesn't really crumble even if fresh if it's been packaged like in the photo.pic.twitter.com/qMp6vSjenC

You can find some Cypriot brands in a store called Way2Save if you are interested. In Harlesden, West London

Also Jez... that Yorkshire one is cute but "100% fresh cow's milk". Nooo. So bad! I have a freezer full of halloumi for now hahah... and my fridge has 4 fresh anaris.

I can't consume cow's milk anyway but it's also partially why halloumi is so yucky in the UK. Cheap milk (cow instead of a mix of sheep and goat) makes for yucky halloumi/anari.

NO MINT... literally GARBAGE halloumi. Always check if it has mint... No mint means it's trash, don't even buy it.
