A delightful and zesty Greek-inspired dip perfect for any occasion.
Place the crumbled feta cheese in a mixing bowl and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to soften.
Letting the feta soften makes it easier to blend and results in a creamier texture.
Roast the red pepper over an open flame or in the oven until the skin is charred. Peel off the skin, remove the seeds, and cut into pieces.
Roasting the pepper enhances its sweetness and adds a smoky flavor to the dip.
In a blender, combine the softened feta, roasted red pepper pieces, and fresh chili pepper. Blend until smooth.
Blend in short bursts to avoid overheating the mixture, which could affect the texture.
Gradually add the olive oil and vinegar while blending until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
Adding the olive oil slowly helps emulsify the dip, giving it a silky texture.
Stir in the dried oregano and transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
Mixing the oregano in at the end preserves its aromatic qualities.
Serve the dip with your choice of accompaniments, such as pita bread or vegetable sticks. Enjoy!
For a vibrant presentation, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of chili flakes.
