Notes
- When zesting the lemon, be careful to avoid the white pith, as that can be really bitter.
- Use fresh herbs rather than dried.
- Try to use the best quality feta you can. If you are using a lower quality one, it will be a little drier so you will need to add a little extra olive oil to the mixture before blending.
- Whipped feta is best served immediately as it will thicken as it sits.
