ROASTED FETA WITH HONEY



Roasted Feta With Honey image

A drizzle of honey and a blast of heat transform a standard block of crumbly feta into an unexpectedly luscious, creamy spread for pita and vegetables. This, with a hunk of crusty bread and a glass of chilled white wine, is the perfect warm weather supper. If you can't get your hands on thyme honey, the regular sort will do just fine.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 8-ounce slab Greek feta, blotted dry
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Greek thyme honey, or other honey
Freshly ground black pepper
Greek-style pita bread, toasted and cut into wedges
Heirloom tomatoes, roasted beets, nuts or pickled vegetables (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Select a small oven-to-table earthenware dish or a small ovenproof sauté pan lined with aluminum foil to help transfer the cheese to a plate after roasting. Place the feta in the dish and cover with the olive oil. Bake until the cheese is soft and springy to the touch but not melted, about 8 minutes.
  • Preheat the broiler. Heat the honey in the microwave or over a pan of simmering water until it is fluid enough to be spread with a pastry brush and then paint the surface of the feta with it. Broil until the top of the cheese browns and just starts to bubble. Season to taste with black pepper. Serve immediately with pita wedges and, if desired, sliced heirloom tomatoes, roasted beets, nuts or pickled vegetables.

Tips for Making Honey and Feta Spread

  • Use high-quality honey. The flavor of the honey will shine through in the spread, so be sure to use a honey that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Use fresh feta cheese. Feta cheese that has been sitting in the refrigerator for a while will not have as much flavor as fresh feta cheese.
  • Don't overmix the spread. Overmixing will make the spread runny and less flavorful.
  • Serve the spread immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion

Honey and feta spread is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Serve it with crackers, bread, or vegetables, or use it as a filling for sandwiches or wraps. No matter how you choose to enjoy it, honey and feta spread is sure to please everyone.
