EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Tangy feta cheese is Greek in origin and is traditionally made from sheep or goat milk. Sometimes referred to as pickled cheese, feta is cured and stored in its own salty whey brine.

Make it even more authentic by replacing the regular ripe olives with kalamata olives.

I love this salad! It is the perfect balance of salt and tang and texture! Making it 'as is' will result in a perfect dish, but there is definitely room to change it for your own tastes. During lemon season, I use extra lemon juice for a little extra zip. It's yummy.
