Summer isn’t far away and soon we will be soaking up the sun (secretly wishing we were in
Greece). We love cooking our favorites summer recipes for our friends and family. Feta is
one ingredient you will always find in our fridge, but we don’t mean just any type of feta.
The real deal is Epiros feta, it’s your authentic Greek feta made in the region of Epirus that
is renowned for it’s purity, clean environment. Think happy goats and sheep roaming freely,
munching on Epiros’s scented grass. Feta can only be called ‘feta’ by following a strict PDO
(Protected Designation of Origin) method when producing delicious feta. So don’t go buying
feta cheese from just anyone, it’s not the real deal.
