CREAMY WHIPPED FETA DIP

Steps:

• Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer to a serving bowl and use a small spoon to create a swirl on the surface of the dip. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and crushed red pepper flakes, if using.
• MAKE AHEAD: This dip can be made up to 3 days ahead of time and stored in a covered container in the refrigerator. It will stiffen up in the fridge to a spread-like consistency, so be sure to let it sit at room temperature for about an hour before serving.
• To make the toasted pita wedges: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Brush the pita bread on both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cut into wedges, then arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes until lightly toasted.
• To make the toasted sesame seeds: In a small pan over medium heat, cook the sesame seeds, stirring frequently, until golden, a few minutes. Watch carefully as they are quick to burn.

SPICY FETA DIP

Steps:

• Add the roasted red pepper, Calabrian chile paste, salt and garlic to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is chunky and evenly chopped.

(The mixture should remain slightly chunky.) Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to come together. Serve with crackers, veggies, on sandwiches or burgers. Spicy feta dip will keep, refrigerated in an airtight container, up to 1 week.
