Feta               cheese               is               an               important               ingredient               in               Greek               cooking.

It's               used               in               salads,               dressings,               and               stuffings               as               well               as               with               chicken,               fish,               and               seafood.

In               fact,               it's               found               in               practically               every               category               of               Greek               food.

The               Greek               tradition               of               feta               cheese               dates               back               to               the               ancient               Greeks,               making               feta               one               of               the               oldest               cheeses               produced.

The               Greek               poet,               Homer               even               mentions               feta               in               his               epic,               the               Odyssey.

How               Feta               is               Made
               Feta               cheese               is               traditionally               made               from               goat's               or               sheep's               milk.

To               make               feta,               milk               is               heated               until               the               curds               and               the               whey               separate.

The               curd               is               then               hung               and               allowed               to               dry               for               several               hours.

After               that,               it               is               cut               into               cubes,               salted,               and               packed               in               brine               in               large               curing               barrels.

It               is               cured               in               brine               for               at               least               three               months,               often               longer.

Feta               is               an               off-white               color,               is               slightly               salty,               and               can               range               in               taste               from               somewhat               mild               to               tangy.

Since               2002,               feta               is               a               protected               designation               of               Greece,               similar               to               France's               Champagne               and               Cognac               designations.

Although               similar               cheeses               are               made               in               Bulgaria,               France,               and               Romania,               among               other               places,               any               cheese               called               feta               must               be               made               in               Greece.

This               government               control               also               set               standards               for               feta               production               and               has               gone               a               long               way               to               standardizing               quality.

Nutrition               
               Feta               is               approximately               25               percent               fat,               of               which               about               two-thirds               is               saturated               fat.

It               is               high               in               protein               and               also               somewhat               high               in               sodium.

Most               of               the               salt               is               in               the               brine               and               the               feta's               sodium               content               can               be               reduced               substantially               by               rinsing               or               soaking               the               cheese               in               water.

Feta               is               a               good               source               of               calcium               and               vitamin               B12.

A               1.25               oz               cube               of               feta               has               about               100               calories.
               Where               to               Find               Feta               
               Feta               cheese               is               reasonably               easy               to               find               in               most               areas,               but               the               quality               varies.

If               you               are               lucky               enough               to               have               a               Greek               or               Mediterranean               market               in               your               area,               it's               worth               the               extra               trip               to               get               fresh               feta.

It's               not               usually               much               more               expensive               than               the               prepackaged               grocery-store               variety,               since               you               aren't               paying               for               all               that               packaging.

If               you're               not               able               to               find               feta               in               your               area,               iGourmet               has               a               large               selection               of               feta               and               other               Greek               cheeses               available               online.

Feta               cheese               will               keep               for               several               months               in               its               brine,               stored               in               the               refrigerator.
               Cooking               with               Feta               
               Feta               cheese               is               traditional               cut               in               cubes               atop               a               classic               Greek               salad               or               melted               on               top               of               baked               chicken               or               shrimp.
