Feta Cheese 8 lb. Tub - 2/Case

Details

A staple in Greek cuisine and many dishes throughout the world, this 8 lb. fresh feta in brine are sure to add an extra burst of flavor to your most popular recipes. This full-flavored cheese is made with cow's milk and cured with brine for greater preservation while delivering a salty and tangy taste with a strong, nutty aroma. Feta is the perfect salty addition to your salad, olive, tomato, and green vegetable recipes; it pairs well with everything from roasted peppers, beets, and carrots to fresh watermelon. Add to pizza, drizzle with olive oil and eat on a baguette, or eat it with beer for the perfect burst of Grecian flavor. Use it to top a traditional Greek salad, mouthwatering spanakopita, or combined with fresh tomato and basil atop a piping hot pizza. Complement the feta by pairing it with wines like beaujolais, pinot noir, sauvignon blanc, and zinfandel or beers like Belgian IPA, English strong ale, or Hefeweizen.

This incredibly versatile cheese can be served as a table cheese, used in baking savory dishes, or served as an appetizer or in salads. Due to the saltiness of its packing brine, a little feta goes a long way and can even replace the need for salt in various recipes. The brine also helps retain the feta's smooth and creamy texture, enhances its sharp and tangy taste, and extends its shelf life, compared to crumbled feta where air dries the texture and sours the flavor. Prior to crumbling, simply cut the block to your desired amount and run it under ice cold water for 10 seconds to clear away the brine and firm it up.
