Feta Cheese Recipes

Feta is a protected designation product, made from sheep's milk with up to thirty percent goat, and brined in barrels or tins. It is in more Greek dishes than any other single ingredient.

Greek cooking uses a narrow pantry very well. A handful of ingredients appear again and again, in different combinations and cooked in different ways, and knowing what each one does is more useful than memorising individual recipes.

Dishes built on it include Horiatiki salata, Spanakopita, Dakos, Saganaki, Tiropita and Garides saganaki.

Every recipe on Kalliopi's Kitchen carries the dish's Greek name and a pronunciation, its region where that is meaningful, ingredient quantities in both metric and imperial, and an honest note on what commonly goes wrong. Nutrition figures are calculated estimates and are labelled as such.
