Provided by Eli K. Giannopoulos

Categories     Dip

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

300g feta cheese (3.5 ounces)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp red vine vinegar
150ml full fat milk
2 red chillies (or more according to preference)

Steps:

  • To prepare this amazing feta cheese dip (tyrokafterh), remove the stem and seeds from the pepper, and chop it finely. (If you have some extra time, roast or slightly fry the pepper before chopping)
  • Cut the feta cheese into cubes and place in a bowl, add the chopped pepper and begin mixing in a blender or stand mixer (food processor). Gradually add the vinegar and olive oil, whilst mixing at medium speed.
  • Pour in the milk until the feta cheese dip has a silky smooth, creamy consistency. Pour in a little at a time and mix until the cheese dip is smooth.
  • If you prefer the dip to be a bit more spicy you can add a couple of teaspoons of cayenne pepper to taste. The milk and cheese require quite a lot of chillies to turn spicy as the milk neutralises the spiciness in the chillies so don't be afraid to add more if you want to.
  • Alternatively if you prefer your dip to be creamy and mild don't add any chillies. If you want the sauce to be even creamier try adding a few tablespoons of yoghurt. This will make it even smoother than the milk!
  • Pour the feta cheese dip (tyrokafteri) in a medium bowl and garnish with some chopped chillies and a couple of olives.
  • Store the feta cheese dip covered in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.

Tips:

  • Choose the right feta cheese: Use high-quality feta cheese for the best flavor. Look for feta that is made from sheep's milk or a combination of sheep's and goat's milk.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, and mint, add a lot of flavor to feta cheese spread. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not be as flavorful.
  • Don't overmix: Overmixing the spread will make it too thick and pasty. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Serve immediately or chill: Feta cheese spread can be served immediately or chilled for later. If you are chilling the spread, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Feta cheese spread is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack that is easy to make. It can be served with crackers, vegetables, or pita bread. With its creamy texture and tangy flavor, feta cheese spread is sure to please everyone at your next party or gathering.
