halal cuisine
Religiously sanctioned eating
Halal cuisine refers to food prepared according to Islamic dietary laws.
The Arabic word halal means permissible—the opposite of haram (forbidden).
Halal requirements prohibit pork and alcohol, and mandate that animals be slaughtered by cutting the throat while invoking God's name.
The restaurant serves halal cuisine, so observant Muslims can eat there.
The term often appears in discussions of Middle Eastern, South Asian, and Southeast Asian cooking.
