Block feta that is creamy seems to work best in this recipe. Crumbled feta tends to be a bit dry.
More helpful tips for you.
- My dip was made with cream cheese for a thicker texture. However, this dip can alternatively be made with Greek yogurt (full fat works best for texture), sour cream, or even a cream cheese alternative. Take into consideration your desired texture when selecting what works best for you.
- If you are using Greek yogurt to make this dip, you can add a bit of softened cream cheese for a creamier texture.
- I like extra virgin olive oil for this recipe for flavor.
- You can make this whipped dip in a food processor or good blender. Making this dip using a whisk is also possible but, may be a bit more work for you.
- Chopped pistachios are used to garnish this dip. You can substitute this with with dukkah, walnuts or a nut of your choice.
- My dip was topped with chopped pistachios, chopped parsley, honey and a drizzle of olive oil, giving the dip even more texture and flavor, with a hint of sweetness.
