Notes
- Use Feta in Brine: For the creamiest, most flavorful dressing, choose feta that’s stored in brine. It’s more moist and tangy, which enhances the overall taste.
- Control the Texture: If you prefer a chunkier dressing, pulse the ingredients just a few times in the blender or food processor. For a smoother dressing, blend it longer or add more water until you reach your desired consistency.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste the dressing after blending and adjust the salt, pepper, and lemon juice to suit your preferences. Remember, the flavor will intensify after sitting for a bit.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the dressing in advance and store it in the fridge. The flavors meld and improve over time, making it even more delicious the next day.
- Thin it Out: If the dressing thickens too much after refrigerating, simply stir in a tablespoon of water to bring it back to the perfect consistency.
