CHEESE MARINATED IN OLIVE OIL
Here's the perfect hostess gift - easy, tasty, inexpensive (but looks otherwise), and wonderful to say, "I made this myself"!
What you need:
-
A block of cheese (feta, mozzarella, goat cheese, or even halloumi)
-
Any of our Extra Virgin Olive Oils
-
Flavor add-ins: fresh herbs (rosemary, dill, thyme, oregano), garlic cloves, peppercorns, lemon or orange zest, sun-dried tomatoes (or a teaspoon of our Sun Dried Tomato Tapenade) crushed red pepper, etc.
-
A glass jar or two
- Cut the cheese into cubes or bite-sized pieces.
- Add a few layers of cheese and herbs/spices into the jar.
- Pour olive oil over everything until its fully submerged.
-
Seal and refrigerate. Let it marinate for at least 24 hours (but up to a week is even better).
Make a personalized label!
The ultimate picnic snack, road trip nibble, or last-minute addition to a snack board. You might even want to keep a few on hand for yourself (trust us).
This summer, skip the wine and bring the cheese — beautifully bottled, flavor-packed, and straight from your kitchen with Beyond The Olive Extra Virgin Olive Oil!
