Ingredients
2 pounds high-quality Greek feta cheese, crumbled
1 fresh jalapeño pepper, thinly sliced (seeds removed for mild, included for spicy)
1 pinch dried oregano
Sea salt, to taste
Directions
Place the crumbled feta cheese in a medium bowl. Using a fork or wooden spoon, mash and combine the feta until it reaches your desired consistency—keeping it slightly chunky or breaking it down further based on preference.
Fold in the sliced jalapeño peppers, distributing the heat evenly throughout the cheese mixture. Adjust the amount of jalapeño or include/exclude seeds based on your desired spice level.
Sprinkle the dried oregano over the mixture and gently fold it in until the herbs are evenly distributed.
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning with sea salt as needed. Since feta is naturally salty, go slowly and taste between additions.
Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately with your choice of vegetables, pita chips, or crackers.
