Instructions

Add the feta cheese, Greek yogurt, and lemon zest to the bowl of a food processor. Blend the mixture, scraping down the sides of the bowl 2-3 times, until the dip is creamy and there are no big chunks of cheese.

With the food processor running, drizzle 1 tablespoon (14 milliliters) of olive oil into the dip. Blend for 1-2 minutes and then test the consistency – the dip should be super creamy and fluffy. If it's too thick, continue adding olive oil 1 teaspoon at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.

Spoon the dip into a serving bowl and drizzle it with honey, to taste. Sprinkle the dip with red pepper flakes, black pepper, and/or sesame seeds, if using. Serve the dip right away with bread, pita, fruit, or other dippers. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Chill Your Bowl First ❄️
Refrigerate your mixing bowl for 10 minutes before whipping to achieve maximum fluffiness and help the feta hold its light, airy texture longer.
Crumble Feta Finely 🧀
Break feta into small, uniform pieces before blending to ensure smooth, lump-free whipping and prevent dense pockets in your final dip.
Toast Your Seeds and Spices 🔥
Lightly toast the red pepper flakes and sesame seeds in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding as garnish to intensify their flavors and aroma.
Use Room Temperature Feta 🌡️
Remove feta from the refrigerator 15 minutes before whipping so it blends smoothly with yogurt, preventing a dense or gritty texture.
Drizzle Honey Last ✨
Add honey as a finishing touch just before serving rather than mixing it in; this creates beautiful visual contrast and prevents it from being absorbed into the dip.
