This is a tale of one recipe with two presentations: sweet and savory, brunch or cocktail party. Whipped feta is smooth, has a complex flavor, and is easy to put together. I roasted a full pan of tomatoes and EVOO and saved the extra to use in other recipes.
Ingredients:
- 8oz feta cheese
- 3oz cream cheese
- 3T The Furies EVOO
- 3T water
- 1t honey
- 1/4t lemon zest, approximately half a lemon
Savory:
- heirloom cherry tomatoes
- 3T EVOO
- salt & pepper
To prepare:
Savory:
- Preheat oven to 375'. Coat tomatoes in EVOO. Roast for 20 minutes. Let cool while making the dip.
Sweet:
- Play with dollops of jams or nuts and honey. My favorites were fig, and classic walnut and honey.
Dip:
- Combine cheeses, EVOO, and honey in food processer. Add water while continuing to whip. Fold in lemon zest.
