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.

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.

MEDITERRANEAN SPREAD

This is the number one requested thing for me to make, which is great because it is sooo easy! This is the best if you spread it on thick bread such as French or farmers bread. Also good with crackers.

FETA AND CREAM CHEESE SPREAD



Feta and Cream Cheese Spread image

Easy and savory spread that only gets better as it ages. I always include the garlic and shallots but mix it up with whatever fresh herbs I have on hand. Other herbs I've used that worked well include dill, rosemary, and oregano.
