Steps:
- Whisk the olive oil, lemon zest, garlic, za'atar and Aleppo pepper in a shallow bowl or small baking dish. Add the feta and spoon the oil over the top. Set aside to marinate 1 hour.
- While the cheese marinates, place the grape leaves in a bowl of room-temperature water and let soak.
- Line a small baking sheet with paper towels. Drain the grape leaves and lay in a single layer on the towels; pat very dry. On a clean surface, overlap the grape leaves slightly to form a square. Place the block of feta in the center (reserve the flavored oil), then fold the grape leaves to cover the cheese like a present.
- Preheat a grill to medium high and prepare for indirect grilling: On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn off half the burners. Toast the pita over direct heat, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Brush the outside of the wrapped feta with some of the reserved oil and place on the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat). Cook until the grape leaves are crisp and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and move to direct heat; grill until lightly charred on the second side and the cheese is warmed through, about 3 more minutes. Transfer to a board or platter and serve with the pita, olives, walnuts and/or apricots, plus any remaining flavored oil.

Steps:
- Grate 1/4 teaspoon zest from the grapefruit and set aside. Trim the ends from the grapefruit, then cut away the peel and white pith. Working over a bowl, cut along both sides of each membrane with a paring knife to remove the segments. Discard any seeds. Cut the grapefruit segments into pieces. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into the bowl.
- Make the dressing: Whisk the sour cream, 2 tablespoons of the grapefruit juice, the grapefruit zest, scallions, 2 tablespoons water and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a bowl.
- Toss the watercress, endive, lettuce, celery and onion in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Divide the salad among shallow bowls. Top with the reserved grapefruit segments and the smoked trout.

GRILLED TROUT WITH GRAPE LEAVES
In the Mediterranean, particularly in Greece, grape leaves are traditionally wrapped around small fish such as red mullet and grilled over a wood fire. The leaves help keep the fish moist, hold it together and add distinctive flavor. Here we've adapted that idea to trout, because red mullet and other smaller fish aren't easy to find in this country. You can also make this recipe with one large fish, 2 to 2 1/2 pounds, rather than two small fish. If you like, omit the rice stuffing and simply fill the fish cavity with lemon slices instead.

Steps:
- Seafood Alternatives: small salmon, small bluefish, small Arctic char
- In a medium bowl, combine the cooked rice, lemon juice, olive oil and lemon zest with salt and pepper to taste.
- Preheat a barbecue grill or preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Thoroughly rinse the fish inside and out and pat dry with paper towels.
- Spoon the rice mixture into the cavity of each fish.
- Lay 6 grape leaves in a rectangle on the work surface, slightly overlapping so there are no large gaps.
- Set one of the trout on top and wrap the leaves up and over the fish.
- Lay another leaf or two on top of the fish if necessary to fully enclose it.
- If grilling, tie a few pieces of kitchen string around the fish to secure. Repeat with the second fish.
- Brush the grill with oil and cook until the fish is just opaque through (make a small slit through the leaves to check), 4 to 6 minutes on each side.
- Alternatively, put the fish in an oiled baking dish and bake for about 20 minutes.
- Discard the strings and serve.

- Rinse the fish under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Deeply score the outside of the fish three times on each side. Season inside and out with salt and pepper. Cut three of the lemon slices in half and set aside. Stuff the cavity of the fish with the fennel fronds and remaining lemon rounds. Close the fish and slide a halved lemon round into each of the score slits.
- To wrap the fish in the grape leaves, lay it on one side and shingle the leaves over the side of the fish facing you, leaving some overhanging over the top. Delicately flip the fish, so now it’s leaf side down, and repeat shingling on the other side of the fish until it’s fully wrapped. (It’s okay if some fish skin is still exposed.) Use 3 or 4 pieces of kitchen twine, depending on the length of the fish, to wrap around the fish and tie a knot. Tuck the leaves under the string as best as you can to create a little wrapped package. This will help keep the fish together while grilling. Fish can be prepared up to 4 hours ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator. Allow the fish to temper for 30 minutes to 1 hour before grilling.
- Drizzle olive oil over the grape leaves, using your hands to rub it around. Lay the fish perpendicular to the grill gates and cook for 8 to 10 minutes on each side, depending on the size of your fish. The grape leaves help to keep the moisture in and steam the fish, so you have some wiggle room. Once the first side is charred and the fish has released itself from the grill, use two metal spatulas to delicately flip the fish over to finish cooking on the other side. Use a paring knife to check the meat along the spine of the fish for doneness.
