Categories     Appetizers

Time 15m

Yield Makes about 1½ cups

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 8-oz block feta cheese
½ cup sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellman's or Duke's
Zest from 1 lemon (about 1 teaspoon, packed)
1 small clove garlic, chopped
¼ teaspoon dried dill
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
⅛ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, plus more for serving
Toasted sesame seeds
Extra virgin olive, for drizzling
Toasted pita wedges (or pita chips) and/or sliced vegetables

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer to a serving bowl and use a small spoon to create a swirl on the surface of the dip. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and crushed red pepper flakes, if using.
  • MAKE AHEAD: This dip can be made up to 3 days ahead of time and stored in a covered container in the refrigerator. It will stiffen up in the fridge to a spread-like consistency, so be sure to let it sit at room temperature for about an hour before serving.
  • To make the toasted pita wedges: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Brush the pita bread on both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cut into wedges, then arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes until lightly toasted.
  • To make the toasted sesame seeds: In a small pan over medium heat, cook the sesame seeds, stirring frequently, until golden, a few minutes. Watch carefully as they are quick to burn.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your spread will taste. Look for fresh, ripe tomatoes, creamy feta cheese, and flavorful herbs.
  • Don't over-process the spread. A little bit of texture goes a long way. Pulse the ingredients in a food processor or blender until they are just combined. Over-processing will make the spread too smooth and失去味道。
  • Season to taste. Start with the amount of salt and pepper specified in the recipe, then adjust to your liking. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
  • Serve immediately or chill. Feta spread can be served immediately or chilled for later use. If you are chilling the spread, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • Use feta spread as a dip, sandwich spread, or topping. Feta spread is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. Try it as a dip for vegetables, crackers, or pita bread. Spread it on sandwiches or wraps. Or use it as a topping for grilled chicken, fish, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Feta spread is an easy and delicious appetizer or snack that can be made with just a few simple ingredients. It is perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply enjoying at home. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy recipe, give this feta spread a try. You won't be disappointed!
