Feta Marinated Recipes

Steps:

• Place a layer of olives, sage, garlic, chile pepper, rosemary, bell pepper, sesame-ginger seasoning, pepperoncini pepper, and oregano into the bottom of a container. Add a layer of feta cheese. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients.
• Pour olive oil into the container to cover feta mixture completely. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• Place feta cheese in a glass jar. Add chile pepper, herbes de Provence, and lemon zest. Fill jar with olive oil so feta is completely covered and seal.
• Marinate in a cool place, but not in the refrigerator, for 3 to 4 days. Remove chile pepper before serving.

Steps:

• Carefully cut feta into cubes.
• Add garlic slices, peppercorns, coriander seeds, capers, bay leaf to your food processor and pulse. (Or use a mortar and pestle and crush).
• Put feta in a jar with a top, or use a bowl to add all ingredients together.
• Layer ingredients starting with feta, ingredients, topping with Thyme sprigs on top.
• Pour enough olive oil to cover cubes of cheese.
• Let marinate in refrigerator for 2 weeks for optimal taste, however; even overnight can be used with good results.
• At end of marinating time, just simply pick out the feta.
• Serve with fresh toast points and some chopped fresh tomatoes and it will be ummm -- ummm -- good.

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients for the marinade.
• Put cubed feta and marinade into a shallow plastic container with a tight fitting lid. Cover with the lid and marinate in the fridge for 24 hours or more. Turn the container lid-side down after a few hours to make sure the feta gets marinated evenly. You may want to turn your container a few times. (The olive oil may thicken in the fridge, but turn into liquid again at room temperature).
• SERVE:You may want to stick a toothpick into every feta cube or just serve it as it is. Serve with (toasted) slices of baguette.

Steps:

• For each of the above combinations, place all ingredients except for the feta in a small saucepan and gently heat over medium low just until tiny bubbles begin to form, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Once the infused olive oil is cool, transfer half of the aromatics from the saucepan to a 16-ounce Mason jar followed by half of the feta. Repeat layering and then carefully pour the infused olive oil into the jar. Gently press the feta down if needed to ensure it is fully submerged and seal the jar with its lid (see Cook's Note). Place the jar in the refrigerator and allow the feta to marinate for at least 12 hours and up to 5 days.
• Remove the jar from refrigerator at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the solidified olive oil to liquify.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the olive oil, parsley, preserved lemon, chile, oregano and peppercorns.
• Cut the feta into 1/2-inch cubes and add them to the olive oil mixture. Gently fold together until feta is evenly coated. Transfer to a jar or lidded container and drizzle with more olive oil, if needed to immerse the feta. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
• Remove from refrigerator at least 30 minutes before serving to allow solidified olive oil to return to liquid form. Serve with crackers or crostini, or spoon on top of seared fish, grilled or roasted vegetables, pasta or salad.
