Tips:

  • Choose fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a burst of flavor to the dip. If you can, use herbs from your own garden or a local farmers market.
  • Don't over-process the herbs: Roughly chop the herbs so that they still have some texture. This will give the dip a more interesting flavor and appearance.
  • Use a good quality feta cheese: Feta cheese is the star of this dip, so make sure to use a good quality cheese. Look for a feta cheese that is made from sheep's milk or a blend of sheep's and goat's milk.
  • Use a thick, plain yogurt: A thick, plain yogurt will help to give the dip a creamy texture. Avoid using a yogurt that is too thin or watery.
  • Season the dip to taste: The amount of salt, pepper, and sumac that you add to the dip will depend on your personal preferences. Start with a small amount and then add more to taste.
  • Serve the dip with pita chips, vegetables, or crackers: This dip is perfect for serving with pita chips, vegetables, or crackers. You can also use it as a spread for sandwiches or wraps.

Conclusion:

Herby feta and yogurt dip with sumac is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It is perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a formal party. The dip is also a great way to use up leftover herbs and yogurt. So next time you have some fresh herbs and yogurt on hand, give this dip a try. You won't be disappointed!
