Marinated Persian Feta Ingredients

Method

Marinated Persian Feta Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Feta

    Cut the Persian feta cheese into bite-sized cubes and place them in a clean, dry glass jar.

  2. 2

    Mix the Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, fresh mint leaves (torn), dried oregano, lemon zest, red chili flakes, crushed garlic cloves, and black peppercorns. Stir well to combine.

  3. 3

    Combine Cheese and Marinade

    Pour the marinade over the feta cheese cubes in the jar, ensuring all pieces are well coated.

  4. 4

    Seal and Refrigerate

    Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, marinate for up to a week.

  5. 5

    Serve

    After marinating, serve the Persian feta as part of a mezze platter, on salads, or with fresh bread.
