Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh tarragon, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Gather and measure all ingredients including crumbling the feta, finely chopping the fresh herbs, mincing the garlic, and squeezing fresh lemon juice to ensure a smooth workflow.
  2. Blend the Base: Combine the feta cheese with Greek yogurt or cream cheese in a food processor or blender. Pulse until the mixture starts to smooth out and has a spreadable consistency.
  3. Add Fresh Flavors: Add the chopped herbs, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to the base. Continue blending until everything is well combined and the dip is luxuriously creamy.
  4. Adjust Texture and Flavor: Slowly drizzle in olive oil while mixing to enhance the texture. Taste and adjust seasoning by adding more salt, lemon juice, or herbs as desired.
  5. Chill and Serve: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and chill for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully before serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients to help feta and yogurt blend smoothly without lumps.
  • Use fresh herbs rather than dried for vibrant flavor and color.
  • Adjust the quantity of Greek yogurt or cream cheese to customize creaminess to your liking.
  • Chilling the dip before serving improves flavor integration and texture.
  • Serve with lemon wedges or pickled veggies to complement the dip’s richness.
