The History of Feta

FETA 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.

I have a subscription, why can't I print this recipe off my computer? I can add to my recipe box, but can't print?

I totally agree with JSLVSCLF. Need a method to reduce servings for small family. Help!

I am very familiar with Jungle Jim's. It is the neatest grocery that I know. Everyone should visit it at least once. They have things that you cannot buy anywhere else.
