Notes
- Adjust the Consistency: If you squeeze too much brine out of the feta, add a little more olive oil or lemon juice to get the consistency you prefer.
- Add Lemon Zest: For extra brightness, stir in lemon zest before serving.
- Let It Sit: If the dip feels stiff from the fridge, let it sit at room temperature for a short time before serving.
- Serve in a Shallow Bowl: Serve in a shallow bowl with a drizzle of olive oil on top.
- Adjust to Taste:Adjust the amount of olive oil and lemon juice based on the consistency and flavor you prefer.
- Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 to 3 days.
- Freezer: This dip can be frozen for about a month, but the texture may change. Place it in a freezer bag and push as much of the air out as you can.
