GARLIC FETA DIP



GARLIC FETA DIP image

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Cheese     Appetizer     No-Cook

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup heart-healthy butter spread
8 ounces cream cheese
3/4 cup Sheep's milk feta cheese
4 anchovy filets
2 garlic cloves peeled
1 T chopped scallions
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup raw pine nuts

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in blender or food processor and process to smooth consistency. Refrigerate until serving, or serve right away.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality feta cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dip. Look for a feta that is creamy and has a slightly tangy flavor.
  • For a smoother dip, use softened butter. If you're using unsalted butter, you may want to add a pinch of salt to the dip.
  • Don't overcook the garlic. You just want to cook it until it's fragrant and slightly browned. If you cook it too long, it will become bitter.
  • Add the yogurt and milk slowly. You don't want to thin out the dip too much. Add just enough to make it creamy and smooth.
  • Season the dip to taste. Add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder until it tastes just the way you like it.

Conclusion:

Garlic feta dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for parties, potlucks, or game days. And it's also a great way to use up leftover feta cheese. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy recipe, give this garlic feta dip a try. You won't be disappointed!
