Creamy Feta Vinaigrette

By lorik

Instead of tossing chunks of feta into her salad or crumbling the cheese on top of cooked vegetables, Melissa Rubel Jacobson purees it right into a vinaigrette. This makes the dressing smooth and luscious and ensures a little bit of tang in almost every bite.

Ingredients

• 3 ounces feta cheese crumbled (3/4 cup)
• 2 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Preparation

Step 1

In a food processor, pulse the crumbled feta with the red wine vinegar, water, oregano and olive oil until the vinaigrette is smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

Tip: Great With Grilled vegetables or shrimp, cucumber salad, spinach salad, tomato salad, potato salad.
