What it is
These are pre-crumbled pieces of feta cheese made with a reduced fat content. Feta is a brined curd white cheese made from sheep's milk, or from a mixture of sheep and goat's milk. This version offers a lighter option for those watching their fat intake. The crumbles are convenient for quick use in various dishes.
How people cook with it
This crumbled cheese is perfect for adding a salty, tangy flavor to both hot and cold meals. Its convenient form saves preparation time.
- Sprinkled over salads
- Mixed into pasta dishes
- Added to omelets
- Used in baked goods
Simply open the package and sprinkle the reduced fat feta crumbles directly onto your prepared dishes. They are ready to use without any further preparation. For hot dishes, add them towards the end of cooking to allow them to soften slightly without melting completely. They can also be incorporated into marinades or rubs for meats and vegetables. Their uniform size ensures even distribution of flavor throughout your meal.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to full-fat feta, this reduced fat version contains less fat. The texture and flavor profile are similar, but the lower fat content makes it a lighter choice. It still retains the characteristic salty and tangy notes that make feta a popular cheese.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused crumbles in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Ensure the container is sealed to maintain freshness and prevent the cheese from drying out. It is best to consume within a few days of opening for optimal taste and texture.
