MARINATED GREEK FETA

Marinated Greek Feta image

I found this simple, super-quick-to-make recipe for Marinated Greek Feta in the November 2005 issue of the Australian magazine 'Super Food Ideas'. It was one of several recipes for entertaining guests with a Greek banquet. I have posted it for the 2005 Zaar World Tour. The preparation time does not include the overnight chilling time.

Time 5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

500 g Greek feta cheese
1 1/2 cups olive oil
1/4 cup cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried greek oregano leaves
1 bay leaf
500 g marinated greek kalamata olives
crusty bread, to serve

Steps:

Cut the feta cheese into 2cm cubes and place them in a shallow, ceramic dish. Combine the oil, pepper, oregano and bay leaf in a jug, pour this over the feta and cover and refrigerate overnight (or longer if time permits).
Serve the feta on a mezze platter with olives, skordalia (recipe posted separately) and crusty bread.
Note: Refrigeration makes oil "cloudy". If you remove the marinated feta from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving, the "cloudiness" will disperse, and the oil will be clear.

Tips:

Choose high-quality feta cheese for the best flavor.
Use a variety of herbs and spices to create a flavorful marinade.
Allow the feta to marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for even better flavor.
Serve the marinated feta with pita bread, crackers, or vegetables.
Drizzle any leftover marinade over the feta before serving.

Conclusion:

Marinated Greek feta is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its tangy, flavorful taste, marinated feta is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
