How to Serve Macedonian Halva
Serve at room temperature for the best flavor and texture — halva softens slightly and becomes more aromatic as it warms. Slice with a sharp knife or crumble over yogurt, ice cream, or oatmeal. Pairs beautifully with strong coffee, Greek mountain tea, or a glass of dessert wine. Store in a cool, dry place; refrigerate after opening and consume within a few weeks.
