MARINATED FETA WITH HERBS AND PEPPERCORNS



Marinated Feta With Herbs and Peppercorns image

The best recipes often make a good ingredient great through minimal effort. For this easy appetizer, start with good-quality feta, preferably in brine, which is creamier than the squeaky supermarket varieties. Many commercial fetas use only cow's milk and can taste somewhat one-note, so look for one that contains both sheep's and goat's milk, which provide the cheese's signature tang. Dice the feta, toss it with preserved lemon, peppercorns and chile, and refrigerate overnight. Spoon it onto crostini, or serve it alongside eggs, fish, salad, grilled or roasted vegetables or atop a bowl of pasta.

Time 10m

Yield About 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more if needed
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons finely chopped preserved lemon, or 4 strips fresh orange zest plus 1 tablespoon juice (from 1 orange)
1 red serrano chile, very thinly sliced (optional)
4 teaspoons finely chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon any combination of whole pink, green, white and black peppercorns, crushed or coarsely chopped
8 ounces firm Greek feta, in brine
Crostini or crackers, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the olive oil, parsley, preserved lemon, chile, oregano and peppercorns.
  • Cut the feta into 1/2-inch cubes and add them to the olive oil mixture. Gently fold together until feta is evenly coated. Transfer to a jar or lidded container and drizzle with more olive oil, if needed to immerse the feta. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
  • Remove from refrigerator at least 30 minutes before serving to allow solidified olive oil to return to liquid form. Serve with crackers or crostini, or spoon on top of seared fish, grilled or roasted vegetables, pasta or salad.

MARINATED FETA



Marinated Feta image

This is a great recipe for marinated feta. Try to chop the red bell pepper and the olives as small as possible. Together with the green herbs the feta looks really colourful and tastes delicious. The recipe is adapted from a Swiss cooking magazine called 'Le Menu' (September 05). I changed the oil as I prefer olive oil to rapeseed oil. But feel free to use rapeseed oil if desired. The stated amount serves six as an appetizer. Marinating time of 24 hours is included in the cooking time.

Time P1DT10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tablespoon finely chopped rosemary
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped thyme leaves
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped oregano leaves
1/4 red bell pepper, very finely chopped
4 black olives, very finely chopped
1/2 cup olive oil (or rapeseed oil)
400 g feta, cubed
1 baguette, sliced and toasted if desired

Steps:

  • Mix all the ingredients for the marinade.
  • Put cubed feta and marinade into a shallow plastic container with a tight fitting lid. Cover with the lid and marinate in the fridge for 24 hours or more. Turn the container lid-side down after a few hours to make sure the feta gets marinated evenly. You may want to turn your container a few times. (The olive oil may thicken in the fridge, but turn into liquid again at room temperature).
  • SERVE:You may want to stick a toothpick into every feta cube or just serve it as it is. Serve with (toasted) slices of baguette.
