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.

This is an excellent recipe. I have hundreds of grape tomatoes this month. I make this recipe every day. My favorite is after they are cooked, I sort of mash them and serve over burgers, pork chops or whatever. Also great as a leftover for lunch.

Pretty good. I will make it again if I have the ingredients, but not go out of my way.

I have a gluten intolerant friend so used a few ground up WASA Bread type crackers, really good.

My husband isn't fond of eating fresh tomatoes and I always look for recipes that would encourage eating this healthy little fruit/veg. He loves feta cheese, so this is a side dish he loves. Great with pasta or toast too.
