💡#DidYouKnow : What Happens When You Fry Feta Cheese?
Frying feta cheese brings about a delightful transformation, offering a world of new culinary possibilities. Here’s what happens when you fry feta cheese:
✴️ Texture: The outer layer develops a crispy and slightly caramelized crust, while the interior remains creamy and smooth, creating a satisfying textural contrast.
✴️ Flavor: Frying intensifies the flavor of feta cheese, enhancing its natural saltiness and providing a rich and savory taste.
✴️ Creaminess: Despite the crispy exterior, the inside of the feta cheese retains its soft and creamy consistency, resulting in a harmonious mouthfeel.
✴️ Melting: While not completely liquified, frying causes the feta cheese to soften and melt slightly, making it perfect for spreading onto bread or incorporating into various dishes.
When it comes to salads, one dish stands out among the rest as the reigning champion of flavour and satisfaction. Ntakos, a traditional Cretan salad, has claimed the title of the best-rated salad for 2023, according to the esteemed Taste Atlas.
Ntakos or “dako” is a vibrant and wholesome salad that originates from the island of Crete, Greece. Its popularity has spread worldwide, captivating taste buds with its incredible combination of flavours and textures.
At the heart of this exceptional salad is the ntakos rusk, a type of dried barley bread. The rusk is soaked in water or extra virgin olive oil to soften it, then topped with a medley of fresh ingredients that make this salad a true delight. Chopped tomatoes bursting with taste, tangy feta cheese or myzithra, pungent olives, fragrant herbs like oregano and basil, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil come together to create a symphony of tastes that dance on the palate.
What sets Ntakos apart and elevates it to the top-rated salad of 2023 is its harmonious blend of simplicity and complexity. Each ingredient shines through, showcasing its distinct qualities, yet harmonizing effortlessly with the others. The juicy tomatoes add a burst of freshness, complemented by the creamy and salty feta cheese. The olives contribute a briny kick, while the herbs infuse the salad with delightful aromas. Finally, the drizzle of extra virgin olive oil ties everything together, enhancing the flavours and providing a luscious finish.
Taste Atlas, a trusted resource for culinary enthusiasts, recognizes the exceptional qualities of Ntakos and its universal appeal. It is a salad that embodies the essence of Mediterranean cuisine—fresh, vibrant, and bursting with the flavors of the sun-drenched region.
Whether enjoyed as a light lunch, appetizer, or side dish, ntakos never fails to captivate taste buds and leave a lasting impression.
