Block, not Crumbled: For best results, make sure to use block feta cheese for this recipe. Crumbled feta is too dry and won’t taste nearly as good.
Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Let the feta cheese and Green yogurt sit at room temperature for several minutes before using. Blending cold ones might make the dip lumpy instead of smooth and soft.
Control Consistency: Consider adding the Greek Yogurt slowly to help avoid making the dip runny. Start with half the amount, pouring more until you’ve reached your desired consistency, texture, and taste. Conversely, if you think the dip is too thick, consider adding milk or cold water. This will lighten the dip’s texture without changing the flavor too much.
Blend Well: You’ll want your feta dip smooth, not gritty, so blend the mixture for a few minutes instead of seconds. This process will help break down the feta cheese fully.
Just Chill: If you have time, consider letting it chill from 30 minutes to an hour before serving. This extra step will help the flavors meld together and improve the dip’s overall consistency.
