Feta cheese is a very simple, pickled cheese with a clean, acidic, and salty taste. Feta has an ancient pedigree, being first made by nomadic tribes in Greece needing to preserve the milk of their flocks of sheep and goats.
Feta can be made with cow's, goat's, or sheep's milk or with any combination of the three. This creamy white cheese is made in various shapes and sizes and has a smooth, crumbly texture and no rind. It is stored in a brine solution to prevent drying out and to preserve.
