- Squeeze out excess moisture from the spinach. This will help to prevent the dip from being watery.
- Use high-quality feta cheese. Feta cheese is the star of this dip, so it's important to use a good quality cheese.
- Don't overmix the dip. Overmixing will make the dip smooth and creamy, which is not the desired texture.
- Serve the dip with pita chips, crackers, or vegetables. This dip is great for parties or potlucks.
