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.

Categories     Salad Dressings

Time 10m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 ounces feta cheese
1/4 cup buttermilk or 1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 green onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill (or 1/4 tsp. dried)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • With a fork, mash the cheese and buttermilk together until it resembled the consistency of cottage cheese.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and blend well.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Let sit, covered, in the refrigerator at least a few hours to blend flavors.
  • If it's too thick, just add a little milk until it's the texture you desire.

Tips:

  • Use full-fat feta cheese for the best flavor and texture.

  • To make the dip ahead of time, simply cover it and refrigerate for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as pita chips, crackers, vegetables, or fruit.
  • For a more flavorful dip, try using a flavored olive oil, such as garlic or herb-infused oil.
