The History of FetaFETA is a white, salty, semi-firm cheese. Traditionally it was made from sheep or goat's milk but is now also made with cow's milk. After feta is formed in a special mold, it's sliced into large pieces, salted and soaked in brine. Although feta cheese is mostly associated with Greek cooking, "feta" comes from the Italian word "fette", meaning slice of food.

My family and I love this salad. I had copied it down from the Taste of Home magazine many years ago, and the recipe as I have it written calls for 2T white wine vinegar and 6T olive oil. Perhaps that's the fix for the person who thinks the dressing is too tart.

My grandmother made this salad several years ago and I LOVE it!! I have probably made it about a dozen or more times since then! I could probably eat this salad everyday! :)

Sorry, but we didn't like this dressing at all...far too tart for our tastes. To make it edible to us, I ended up cutting the vinegar by adding 2 T. olive oil and about an extra 3 T sugar.

Wonderful salad. The sugared peppered walnuts are a great addition. Will make it again and again.

I really like the flavors!! I used store-bought candied walnuts to save a few minutes. The dressing is delicious, although I added about a tablespoon of olive oil to cut the vinegar a little. Perfect for colder months when it's hard to find veggies for your salad!
