What Is Whipped Feta

Whipped feta is simply feta cheese blended until smooth and creamy for a perfectly effortless dip. Greek yogurt adds a light tang and extra silkiness, while olive oil creates a rich texture that spreads beautifully on bread or vegetables. Garlic and black pepper add depth and a savory balance to every bite.

Tips for a Perfectly Smooth Dip

  • Use block feta instead of pre-crumbled. It blends smoother and creamier.
  • Let all ingredients come to room temperature before blending.

Variations to Try

  • Add roasted red peppers for a smoky and slightly sweet flavor.
  • Blend in honey for a sweet and salty version that is delicious on toast.
  • Top with crispy garlic chili oil or sprinkle with za’atar for a Mediterranean twist.
  • Mix in lemon zest or juice for a bright and citrusy dip.

How to Serve Whipped Feta

Serve this dip at parties, as a spread for sandwiches, or as an easy snack. It pairs wonderfully with pita chips, crackers, cucumber slices, or roasted vegetables.
