Yummiest Cheese Ever!
You may see this cheese, Pure Luck Farm's Feta , in the deli area of the grocery store and think "Geez! $6.00 for feta? Get real! I'll just spend $2.49 for the HEB brand." But you would be very, very mistaken. This goat feta, made just west of Austin in Dripping Springs, is the yummiest cheese you will ever have and, added bonus!, it is so strong and so fresh that it is one of the few foods where you actually do eat less of it because it's so good!
Me and this cheese go way back. I put this creamy, tart feta on things you would not normally put cheese on but for some reason is totally awesome:
- Apples- I spread a bit of feta on apples and its like a more savory version of apples and peanut butter
- Eggs- the tiniest bit sprinkled on top of cinchy scrambled eggs add a lot of flavor
- Toast or bagels- Pure Luck feta is way yummier than cream cheese even
- An avocado, tomato and feta sandwich with lots of greens is totally easy and very yummy
- In tomato or pesto based pasta sauces, of course
- Zucchini- tossed in with steamed or sauteed zucchini you can't go wrong. Paired with slow cooked summer squash sauteed in butter, this feta is divine
- In every casserole known to man. I just substitute about 1/3 of the feta for the amount of cheddar or other cheese they call for. It always tastes great though. What the feta lacks in volume it makes up in flavor.
In short this feta really packs a punch, you are supporting a local dairy at the same time and enjoying a really well made cheese!

I completely second...this stuff rocks!
This looks amazing! And now I want some, even though it is 1 am. Where do I find this again?
I usually get it at Wheatsville or Central Market. I'm pretty sure Whole Foods has it too and Boggy Creek Farm usually has it as well. It's in a tub-like container and the label is white, black and red. Yay!
Oh, and a great picture, btw.
I love your blog. I love cooking. I love eating REAL food. Gluten free is better for me too so I'll definitely have to keep an eye on what you're making.
Now that we have cows, I'm hoping we get to make our own cheese and butter one day!
