Greek Feta Cheese
Greek feta is a brined curd cheese traditionally made from sheep’s milk or a sheep-goat milk blend, renowned for its crumbly yet creamy texture and sharp, salty tang. Protected by EU designation (PDO), authentic versions originate from specific Greek regions and contain at least 70% sheep’s milk, yielding a lower fat content than many cow’s milk cheeses while providing significant calcium. Its bold flavor enhances salads and Mediterranean dishes, though the brine preservation results in high sodium levels that warrant portion monitoring.
