Feta Cheese (1KG)

£14.50

Feta is a traditional Greek brined white cheese made from sheep milk, or a mixture of sheep and goat milk. It has been a protected designation of origin (PDO) product since 2002, meaning only cheese produced in Greece using specific methods and milk can legally be called “feta”. 
Taste and texture
  • Tangy and salty flavor: Feta has a salty and tangy flavor, with intensity that varies by region and age. The longer it ages in brine, the saltier and more robust its flavor becomes.
  • Crumbly, soft texture: It has a soft, creamy, and slightly crumbly texture, with small or no holes, and no skin. Its texture also depends on its age, ranging from very creamy when fresh to more dry and crumbly when aged.
  • Rich and robust: The unique flavor is influenced by the milk from sheep and goats that graze on the rich flora of Greece’s mountainous regions. 
Culinary uses
Feta is a versatile ingredient, used in both raw and cooked dishes. 
  • Salads: It is a classic component of Greek salads, crumbled over tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, and olives.
  • Baked dishes: Feta can be baked in pastries like spanakopita (spinach pie) and tiropita (cheese pie), where its flavor is enhanced and softened.
  • With olive oil: It is often served simply with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of aromatic herbs like oregano.
  • Pasta: Baked feta pasta, made famous by viral social media posts, demonstrates its ability to create a delicious and creamy sauce.
  • Appetizers: Feta is often marinated in olive oil with herbs and spices for a flavorful appetizer.
