Ingredients

• 8 ounces (224 grams) feta, crumbled
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk, regular or lactose-free
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) olive oil
• 1 fresh Serrano or jalapeño pepper, seeds and veins removed, minced
• 2 to 3 tablespoons (30 to 40 ml) cream cheese, optional

Preparation

Step 1

Put the feta and milk in a blender and mix until grainy. With the blender running, slowly pour the olive oil into the center and blend on low until it forms a glossy cream. You may have to stop and scrape down the container several times to remove air pockets. If using, add cream cheese to tone down the tangy taste. Stir in a teaspoon (5 ml) of minced pepper and taste before adding more if desired.
