Feta Cheese, Block

Feta Cheese, Block

Everyday

Feta is a brined curd cheese originating from Greece, traditionally made from sheep's milk or a blend with goat's milk. Its crumbly yet creamy texture and tangy, salty flavor develop through a minimum 2-month aging process in brine, which also contributes to its high sodium content. While lower in fat than many aged cheeses, feta provides significant calcium and protein, and is commonly crumbled over salads, baked into pastries, or served with Mediterranean vegetables.
