Dip Ingredients
- 8 ounces Feta Cheese, crumbled
- 3/4 cup Plain Greek Yogurt, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- Garlic, to taste (minced or crushed)
Instructions
- Bring ingredients to room temperature: Remove the feta cheese and Greek yogurt from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature until they soften slightly. This ensures the dip will whip up ultra-smooth and creamy.
- Combine ingredients: Place the feta cheese, Greek yogurt, and extra-virgin olive oil into a food processor bowl.
- Blend until fluffy: Pulse and blend the mixture for 1 to 2 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula as needed, until the dip becomes smooth and fluffy in texture.
- Add garlic and finish: Stir in garlic to your taste preference to add a subtle aromatic kick. Serve immediately as a dip or spread.
Notes
- For a thinner consistency, add a splash of water or more olive oil while blending.
- Try adding fresh herbs like dill or chives for extra flavor variations.
- The dip keeps well refrigerated for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
- Letting ingredients come to room temperature is crucial for the dip’s creamy texture.
- Use a good quality extra-virgin olive oil for the best flavor impact.
