Ingredients

Scale

  • 8 oz feta cheese
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Roasted Strawberries

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for roasting the strawberries.
  2. Prepare Strawberries: Place the halved strawberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and honey, then toss gently to evenly coat the strawberries in the mixture.
  3. Roast Strawberries: Roast the strawberries in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until they become tender and fragrant, which intensifies their flavor.
  4. Whip Feta: Using a food processor, blend the feta cheese with the extra virgin olive oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  5. Assemble Dish: In a serving bowl, spread or layer the whipped feta, then generously top it with the roasted strawberries along with their syrup from the baking sheet.
  6. Serve: Serve the whipped feta and roasted strawberries with bread or crackers for dipping and enjoying as an appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • For a different flavor profile, you can substitute balsamic vinegar with aged sherry vinegar.
  • If you prefer a sweeter dish, add an extra drizzle of honey over the assembled whipped feta and strawberries before serving.
  • Use a high-quality extra virgin olive oil for the best flavor in the whipped feta.
  • This recipe can be prepared ahead; just keep the whipped feta chilled and roast strawberries before serving.
  • Serve with toasted baguette slices or your favorite crackers.
