Notes
Top Tips:
Tip 1: If you are into a little heat, drop in this dip some red pepper flakes or a bit of chili powder. You can also add a pinch of more salt to your preference.
Tip 2: Use either Bulgarian or Feta cheese, or half by half. The taste will still be amazing and the texture will be creamy in both cases.
Tip 3: Avoid crumbled feta cheese. It is much better to use a block of creamy feta for the balanced texture of the dip.
