Marinated Feta - Simple to Make, Guaranteed to Impress as an Appetizer or Keto Fat Bomb
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Following up on my whipped feta recipe/video, I bring you another recipe to use up that container of feta. This one can be used as an appetizer, part of a charcuterie tray, or as a savory fat bomb. It's one of those recipes that looks and tastes like it required a lot more effort than it actually takes.

I LOVE that you are trying to use all the parts that are left over! My hubs calls me cheap when I do this, buy magically never complains when he is eating my "cheapness"!
Love the idea of sequenced recipes! I am a single guy so almost always have extra ingredients left over. And I move on... and then things go bad and I throw them out. I HATE wasting food. Sequenced good Keto recipes would make me feel very warm and fuzzy and save me a few $. I'll be buying that cookbook for sure.
As you were spooning the marinade over the feta, my mouth literally began to water. I can't wait to try this!
😄
It is impressive! Will be making this. Love how your brain is constantly working on innovative experiments. We all appreciate it.
Delicious 🤤 love anything mediterranean!!! I need to hit up Costco again they were all out of the feta in the tub last week 😳. I was craving it ! must have looked like a weirdo I was standing in front of the cheese section looking Devastated way too long. 😫
I love that your Tshirts are consistent across time in this video
Steve, you've got some serious knife skills❗❗ These ideas are great😋
So happy to see you tried the Zahatar I suggested.
I've used za’atar for other dishes and love it. This looks good. Thanks!
I have to tell you I was super impressed at how easily you cut off the Saran Wrap! I’m never able todo it without an issue. 😉😜
I am on my way to the spice store right now to get zitar so I can make this. My son is half Greek and he and my granddaughters are coming for dinner Friday night so I plan to make this for him and the girls. It will be a wonderful new twist on feta which we all love! On another note I just purchased a dash egg bite maker. Whip up cottage cheese and eggs and add anything you like, I shredded gruyere and bacon and they are delish! My only complaint is it's too small but it sure is better than buying the crap Starbucks offers
So excited to try this, I love feta
I love the way you experiment.
That's a great idea Steve!!!
Make another dip with the results of their marination experiment! :D
Okay got my zitar and marinated the feta for 3 days. OMG it was fabulous. I took a lot of the marinade smashed up the feta and put it over konjak noodles and it was an outstanding meal. I'm waiting for sorghum noodles from Dr gundry can't wait to try it with those!
I put my left over marinade on a steak and that was pretty wonderful. Glad you liked it.
I love feta! This looks delicious.
I love your vacuum sealer 😍
Me too! 😄
My fave international grocery store no longer carries my fave feta, but I’ll find a new source so I make this recipe and keep this on hand. We all love feta! This is destined to be a family favorite 🤩
I’m making feta- brined chicken this weekend. We’ll see if I make a masterpiece or a hot mess 🤣
I now get mine at Costco now a 1 lb container with lots of brine! I used to get mine at Trader Joe's for years probably the last 15 years and it was from Israel. The closest feta to Greece I could find, not this Athenos crumbly dry salty stuff. The real feta in Greece is kind of creamy almost like cream cheese. Anyhoo as does TJs the cost of the Israeli feta got too high so now they make their own and I just do not like it. Some people do but not me. I do like the one from Costco and it comes with 4 squares. I take one of the squares and put in a container with milk. It goes fast so it's ok, the milk doesn't spoil. Hope that helps.
@@barbaraeulayne Thank you! I’m used to buying imported feta from international stores-Turkish, Bulgarian, French-but I’ll certainly give Costco’s feta a try. I agree with you on those dry crumbles. Sticking a Greek name on the label doesn’t make it authentic 🤢
May I suggest using a firm feta so it holds together (rather than a creamier variety like French feta). This sounds delicious.
Hey Steve, thanks for these sequencing vids showing great waste saving ideas, you're very innovative. Agree with others in how your mind is on that. Hope when your cookbook comes out we can get it in Australia 🤞🤞
Btw....that's some choppin' knife!!! 😮 thanks again for bringing your experiments to the tube 👏🌞😁
Ooooh! This sounds awesome!
Steve, make a white pizza! You could use the marinade on the crust and crumble the marinated feta on top!
💋🧚🏻♀️❤️🇺🇸
That would probably be pretty tasty!
Saute fresh baby spinach, onion, cherry or grape tomatoes top this on keto flatbread and bake. Boboli was used but it is not keto. The flavors of the feta with the veggies is sooo tasty. Looking forward to your recipe sequencing cookbook.
@@jda9193 -Sounds delicious too!
💋🧚🏻♀️
@@festussmom6364 it is a quick meal, too.
Oh man! YUM!!!!
You can never have too much feta!
I know fresh ground pepper is great. But you might want to consider trying Costco's Organic No Salt Seasoning in some of your recipes. It has seasoning from around the world. A lot of times I use that in place of pepper.
I'll give it a try.
Recipe sequencing. I have never heard that term but it’s a concept I thought about last year. Because I want to make us an Indian recipes. But I don’t want to just do it one day because I have all the spices and other ingredients that are open and it would make more sense to do Indian for a week or two. In another week do Chinese. Another week do Japanese. I’m thinking that that is recipe sequencing. So thank you for the lesson.
I've purchased lots of specialty ingredients (especially spices) only to later wonder "what the heck is this for?". So I think that would be another handy reference section in an eventual cookbook - a glossary or cheat sheet listing which recipes use which ingredients, so that people can create their own sequences of meals.
@@SeriousKeto brilliant!
Leftover infusion on salad or to marinate some thin slices of meat
I used Za'tar when I discovered a grilled cheese recipe.. loved it... Would seem that the grilled cheese would be a keto main course ..??
You mean a cheese like halloumi?
@@SeriousKeto I assume that may be the name of the cheese.. but it was given to me by my daughter in a monthly food subscription box ... I have since found it in the super market just called Grilling Cheese.. It was the same box that I first tried couscous.. so???
@@suzyhayden8643 probably halloumi
Have you tried using Feta as part of a chaffle recipe? Was looking at some Feta at store today pondering if that would be a debacle or "the next big thing".
I have not, but now I'm curious.
Yummm!!!
I lived in Turkey for a time, used Feta always & za'ata was one of my favorites. Thank you for reminding me of good memories! Am going to make this recipe & the marinated chicken! Bring on more middle eastern dishes! Thank you Steve!
Za'atar!! Had forgotten about this wonderful blend. Thanks again for another great recipe 😋
I really like the idea of recipe sequences. This looks great!
Steve , that looks amazing! What is the knife your using? My birthday is valentine's day and Mr Hubby just asked what he could get me! Perfect timing🤭
It's the Dao Vua Leaf Spring Kiri Cleaver from Milk Street. I sharpen mine with a leather strop to the point that I can shave with it (tested on my leg, not my face).
I made it whipped Feta last week, it was delicious.
Lol I do the same, made ur dip, yum, then used some if the dip in an Alfredo sauce that I smothered my hearts of palm linguine! so good!
We’re definitely trying this Steve! Have you tried the baked feta with tomatoes? One of my favorite dinners my wife makes. She cooks the chicken breast on the side then bakes the feta/tomato recipe and then just spoon the mix over your chicken. Very good
Yes. I've done that. I figure no need to make a video of it, as there are a gazillion of them already. 🙂
@@SeriousKeto true, there are quite a few of them.
My bro-in-law in Greece used to take a slab of feta and cut up little yellow and red hot peppers he had and then pour olive oil on top and seal in foil and bake. He and I were the only ones who would eat it since it was so flaming hot. Loved his peppers. Sop up with some bread and delish! The tomatoes are also delish! Will have to spoon over chicken next time! thx
That smile you made when you took your first bite. I'm sold. 😂
Middle Eastern mayo sounds wonderful!
Sounds like a great recipe--we'll try it. BTW? Your son looks JUST like his Mom! 🙂
I LOVE the sequencing idea!
This looks absolutely amazing!! Planning to make for next friends get-together! Thank you for your delicious looking keto recipes! 😋
Wow that reminds me of home Steve! Hence back home they will sponge that extra olive oil with a pita bread. So if you are having this with keto bread there you go. Going to connect with you via contact me page on the web site.
I've been making Starbucks egg bites so I have some feta in my fridge atm. Might try this!
Can't wait for your cookbook. I am single and have either ate the same food for a week or thrown out ingredients cause I can't figure out what to do with it. Due to delivery costs of groceries, I typically only shop once a month, so it's not like I can just buy some missing ingredient. Right now I have Gets on my list just to make the dip, that sounded solo delicious. Being able to add this new recipe is absolutely perfect ! Was holding my breath when you cut open the bag-was cringing at the cleanup if it spilled onto the counter and dripped on the floor !! (Something that'd happen to me for sure). Love kalamata olives even if I spell it wrong !! You're making me hungry !!!
Hey Steve, what a great idea for a cookbook, too many cookbooks lead you to buy ingredients that you then end up not using, so recipe cycling would be fantastic! Keep up the great work my friend!
I like your idea of recipe sequence! This sounds so yummy but I’ll have to figure out how to make smaller batch as it’s just me eating it- my son won’t touch feta.
Omg yes more feta ❤️
This looks really tasty. Makes me wish I had one of those vacuum sealers.
Looks delicious 😋
Enter Zatar (insert applause here) .. my husband is from Syria .. and his mama is 101 years old and still making her own zatar .. I just sprinkle zatar on my feta .. it’s amazing .. but I’m gonna try this recipe ..my grandchildren grew up on zatar rolls.. hot pita sprinkled with olive oil and zatar… roll up and run around the house giggling like a toddler and eating your zatar roll …(btw it also is delish sprinkled on mashed cauliflower ) 😉.. you’re welcome
Why am I welcome? I made the recipe.
@@SeriousKeto I was talking about sprinkling zatar over mashed cauliflower .. and I should of thanked you for the recipe.. my apologies
Gotcha 😉
Another great looking recipe! What brand of vacuum sealer did you use? I vacuum seal with the machine listed in your Amazon store. But, often the seal is often unreliable and find anything with liquid is difficult.
Can I just say...your son really rocks that 'teenage dude' attitude. lol. I enjoy it! This sounds like a great recipe, other than the hot pepper for me personally.
Ooo! Excited to follow the subsequent experiments! I'm ALL ABOUT making the most of my efforts and the marriage of the herbs, spices, oils, etc. YAY! Off to find some Zahtar...
Can’t wait for the chicken brine one . . 🤤
Dang I’m watching this at 10:30 PM and I’m so hungry now. I have to learn not to do this.
Can’t wait to try this! AND excited for your cookbook to come out!
You know its a good piece of food when Steve gives that look to the camera! Gotta try this
I’m loving this! I have to make it! Can’t wait for the cookbook!
Thanks again for your sharing of good things.
I vote for feta salad dressing. If you are counting votes
Great episode. Thank you
The marinade would be good on chicken.
Omgoodness!!! Sounds amazing
Hmm another Great recipe.
This looks amazing. I am a huge cheese fan. I have a video idea/request. I am wondering if there are insulin spikes from using extracts that have been processed with a little alcohol. I am interested in learning which are keto safe. For example, almond, vanilla, orange, maple, chocolate extracts. I'll bet cooking cooks off any residual alcohol, but what about using them where there is no heat involved. I meant to ask this many months ago and if they are taboo now I understand. Or maybe a family member would agree to do the blood glucose tests...??
I've never had an issue with them, but I'm also not a diabetic.
Being allergic to bell & chili peppers… I would like to hear any ideas how to make it with peppers.
This is my first video of your’s and it was very enjoyable.
Just don’t include the pepper. It will still be yummy.
Looks fantastic! I am going to give it a try. How soon can we expect your cookbook?
I’m shooting for in time for the holidays
@@SeriousKeto I hope you will announce so I can get on the "New release" list! BTW, I love that you include your family in your videos.
The feta looks fantastic! I like your idea for a cookbook. Which reminds me, you said you're a big fan of Milk Street so i wanted to ask you which of his cookbooks is your favorite, because i wanted to get one. I am leaning toward Cookish, because i like the concept.
That’s a tough call. I have them all, along with every issue of the magazine since it started.
Made the recipe, however the olive oil congealed in frig, doesn't that stop the marinating process?
Thanks for your channel, it is great !
Yes, but it also keeps it from becoming overly marinated. I just take it out of the fridge a half hour or so before I plan on eating it.
you should mash it to a creamy consistency and use as a spread. In Greece, this is a version of a dish called "Tirokafteri", a type of appetizer with pita bread.
I'm sure that would taste great as well.
My marinated feta is very popular but the recipe feta starts "first milk your cow..."🤣
I don't have one of those.
Would you please share where you got your vacuum seal? Thank you very much.
I am new to KETO so all tools are helpful.
This is mine: amzn.to/3BItiuG
I must try this one….looks yum.
You could make preserved lemons and use them. They last for a year in a jar. Preserved lemons are used all over the Middle East in cooking.
I have a jar of them
Looks amazing! Where can I find a vacuum sealer like yours?
here you go: amzn.to/3sBdC85
Looks great!!
I want this!!!
Where do you buy Zatar Steve?❤️👩🏻🦳
This is what I used: amzn.to/368E1CP
Oh gosh another something I would eat too much of, lol... yummy
The great thing is, you could eat the entire batch and barely deny your daily carb allowance. 😉
Do you think this would work with paneer or other cheese substitute?
You could really do it with any cheese. I don't think the texture of paneer would allow it to absorb much of the marinade though.
2 Big Lebowski shirts in one video = Subscribed
The dude abides
What vacuum sealer did you use for this?
VacMaster VP215: amzn.to/34LJrmy
What kind of knife were you using?
It's the Dao Vua Leaf Spring Kiri Cleaver from Milk Street
UA-cam is all over the place with how they present your videos to me. I know this was a year ago but do you have that cookbook already written? And is it out yet?
The challenge is finding the time and software skills to put a cookbook together (or the money to pay someone). Also in speaking with some other content creators who have made cookbooks, they recommend self publishing, as publishers will make requests like 80% of the recipes need to be "new" and not already have a video or be on my website.
@@SeriousKeto well I’m sure it’ll be fantastic! Take your time and do it right as my Papaw would drill into brain everyday!
Love feta and lemon. Sure looking forward to the chicken brines.
Sometimes I just don't know what to do with plain chicken breasts and thighs.
Do you think this would be good with a different kind of cheese, maybe paneer or fresh mozzarella?
Fresh mozzarella would be great, as would an aged white cheddar.
@@SeriousKeto thanks
Thank you for another great recipe. Will make this weekend. So many possibilities
And here I was thinking that feta crumbles on salad is fancy. Whole new level. Thanks for posting.
I love the serendipitous combinations possible when combining two dishes. Can’t wait to see the creativity you bring to it!
Excellent marinated feta cheese cubes which would take a feta cheese focaccia to the next level; marination in an infused oil such as garlic, 🌿 Rosemarie, lemon would also be nice; your recipes make us creative.
Have you read anything about high protein keto? I’m part of a Facebook group that pushes high protein lower fat keto. They encourage no more than 80 grams of fat, which makes it very difficult to eat things like this or your whipped feta. I’m not 100% sure if the high protein keto is best because I struggle with being regular when I do it. I would love to hear your take on this.
That’s not how I choose to do keto.
When you are trying to sort through the information about keto-who or what is your go to resource? This is long term for me. I’m 17 months in. I’ve lost 104 pounds. I’d like to lose another 24 pounds. There is so much information out there and I’m not sure who to listen to. I want to lose weight, but I also want to be healthy and this is my WOE for life. Would love your thoughts. Dr. Berg says don’t count your green veggies carbs. This keto Facebook page says you should. Dr. Ken Berry promotes carnivore - which I can’t do because I feel awful when I don’t eat my veggies.
Do you keep track of your macros? Or do you just eat until full?
I’m on the homestretch and would love some advice from someone who had reached their goal.
I believe the "right" way to do keto is the way that is sustainable, affordable and fits into your lifestyle. That differs for each individual, which is why I don't give much in the way of advice beyond that. There are far too many dogmatic people in the keto world, which creates confusion and frustration.
I quit tracking my macros after about a year on keto. I can "eyeball" how much to eat in the way of carbs on any given day and have only been out of ketosis 4 or 5 times in three years - all by choice. I eat until I'm satisfied. If I eat until I'm full, then it happened because I "overshot". I don't like feeling full.
This looks so wonderful. I was in Vegas recently and we ate it Fogo de Chao and they had a marinated feta that was absolutely to die for. I hope this is going to taste like that!
Also I wanted to thank you for your viewing of your KetoChow box the other day, The licorice just sounded so inviting that I had to order I used your link and I also got the starter box too Thank you so much
Made something similar a few months ago but couldn't manage to wait for 2 days 😅
Will give it another try!
Yummo! 🤩🧀
What brand is that vacuum sealer?
This is the one: amzn.to/3oFo79o
If you do a lot of vacuum sealing, it pays for itself in the cost of the bags vs something like a FoodSaver.
@@SeriousKeto yes, I freeze pretty much every meal since my husband and I are not leftover eaters. My food saver is on its last leg.
Boo! They are out. What was your #2?
If you click "see all buying options", there are a couple of companies that are selling them through Amazon.
Yummy! Btw weren’t you working on a new tortilla chip? Maybe I missed it but it sounded interesting. I’ll look on your videos to see if I missed it.
No waste, good idea. Keep on re using what is left. Sounds really good, though. I am just a bit careful about my cheese intake at my age. (55 in July FYI)
