CREAMY WHIPPED FETA DIP



Creamy Whipped Feta Dip image

Similar to htipiti, the salty and tangy Mediterranean mezze spread, this feta dip is fabulous with toasted pita or veggies.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Appetizers

Time 15m

Yield Makes about 1½ cups

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 8-oz block feta cheese
½ cup sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellman's or Duke's
Zest from 1 lemon (about 1 teaspoon, packed)
1 small clove garlic, chopped
¼ teaspoon dried dill
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
⅛ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, plus more for serving
Toasted sesame seeds
Extra virgin olive, for drizzling
Toasted pita wedges (or pita chips) and/or sliced vegetables

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer to a serving bowl and use a small spoon to create a swirl on the surface of the dip. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and crushed red pepper flakes, if using.
  • MAKE AHEAD: This dip can be made up to 3 days ahead of time and stored in a covered container in the refrigerator. It will stiffen up in the fridge to a spread-like consistency, so be sure to let it sit at room temperature for about an hour before serving.
  • To make the toasted pita wedges: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Brush the pita bread on both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cut into wedges, then arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes until lightly toasted.
  • To make the toasted sesame seeds: In a small pan over medium heat, cook the sesame seeds, stirring frequently, until golden, a few minutes. Watch carefully as they are quick to burn.

Categories     Appetizer     Dip

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the labneh and lemon zest. Season with a large pinch of kosher salt. Whisk gently, and as you do so, slowly, drizzle extra virgin olive oil (about 1 tablespoon). (The labneh mixture should be creamy and fluffy). Set aside or refrigerate for later.
  • In a small skillet, warm 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and thyme sprigs. Cook for a brief minute, watching the garlic to turn just golden. Remove the garlic.
  • To the warmed oil, add the tomatoes to the skillet. Turn the heat to medium, watching for the tomatoes to burst a little as they cook. Season with za'atar and crushed red pepper flakes. Add the Pearls Specialties Olives and cook for 30 seconds or until warmed through.
  • Assemble the dip. Spread the whipped labneh in the bottom of a serving bowl. Top with the warmed olive oil, tomatoes, and olives. Finish with a sprinkle of parsley and more fresh thyme, if you like.
  • Serve with pita chips or your favorite crackers.

  • Soak the dried chickpeas overnight in a large bowl covered by 2.5 cups water. Cover with kitchen towel and set aside. If using canned chickpeas, skip this step go to Step 2 below.
  • Drain and rinse the chickpeas. To a large saucepan or skillet over high heat add the chickpeas and baking soda. Toss to coat and dry cook 2-3 minutes, stirring often.
  • Add the 6.5 cups of water and bring to a boil. Cook for 30 minutes (See Note 4) over medium heat. Skim any foam and skins that floats to surface. Chickpeas are done when they break up easily when pressed between thumb and finger. Drain and transfer to food processor. At this stage you can pick through to remove any skins, but I feel the food processor going at 5 minutes does a fantastic job of creating a creamy texture.
  • Process cooked chickpeas to a thick paste. Stop and scrape down the sides. With motor running add the tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt and cumin. Next, with motor still running, drop in the ice cubes and mix for a total of 5 minutes. You want the creamiest, smoothest paste.
