HERBY FETA AND YOGURT DIP WITH SUMAC



Herby Feta and Yogurt Dip With Sumac image

This tangy and creamy dip is the perfect appetizer for a warm summer evening outside, and it makes a nice condiment for grilled meats and veggies, too. Fresh green herbs brighten up the salty feta, and sumac gives it another layer of flavor and a gorgeous pop of color. Choose a feta in brine over vacuum-packed, if you've got the option. Feta varies a lot in salt content, so you won't see a measured amount of salt here; just taste the dip and add a bit if you think it needs it.
