  • Total Time: 40 minutes (including chilling time)
  • Yield: About 1½ cups (serves 6-8) 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 200g good-quality crumbly feta cheese
  • 100g Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup fresh mixed herbs (parsley, chives, tarragon, basil), roughly chopped
  • 1–2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Gather and Prep Ingredients: Measure out feta, Greek yogurt, fresh herbs, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roughly chop the herbs for easier blending and peel the garlic cloves.
  2. Blend the Base: In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the feta, Greek yogurt, herbs, garlic, and lemon juice. Pulse until the mixture starts to come together but still retains some texture.
  3. Add Olive Oil and Seasoning: With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the dip reaches a smooth and airy consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste, pulsing briefly to combine.
  4. Adjust and Chill: Taste and adjust the seasonings or add more lemon juice if desired. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully before serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature feta and yogurt for smoother blending without lumps.
  • Opt for fresh herbs rather than dried to ensure the brightest flavor.
  • Do not overblend; keep a slightly textured, whipped consistency for interest.
  • Add lemon juice gradually, tasting as you go to balance acidity.
  • Serve the dip cold; chilling enhances flavor development and maintains the whipped texture.
