When I read that block feta was not easy to find anywhere because of the baked feta craze, I had to find a recipe. This was the bomb—I found my Basque friend in the kitchen scooping up the last of the crumbs and oil with crackers! He is 72, very discriminating and I was so pleased he liked it. Thank you!

Excellent! I love making this and it’s become my current favorite way of eating feta. I put it in the air fryer for the same amount of time (at 175C in Europe), added fresh tomatoes and it turned out a treat!

Quick question 
Do you drain the jar of olives? Drain the sundries tomatoes if in oil?

This was amazing, I have made it several times and now it is requested for any occasion with my friends and family. Thank you.

So delicious and easy to make. Everyone loved it!

Perfect!  I made it with Sourdough Flatbreads.  Excellent!  This is my go-to recipe.
