3 yummy recipes that'll make feta cheese your secret weapon
Looking to add a dash of excitement to your kitchen endeavours? There may be a simple, super versatile ingredient you're underutilizing — and that's feta cheese, the cheese that tastes betta!
Thanks to its distinctive tangy taste, feta cheese complements both sweet and savoury foods, which makes it the perfect ingredient to use in an endless array of delicious recipes. (Trust us, it goes way beyond that viral TikTok feta pasta.)
When it comes to feta, Krinos Canada takes the spotlight. The family-owned, family-run company is one of the largest manufacturers, importers and distributors of premium Greek foods in Canada and has the largest selection of feta — they have a feta for everyone and every occasion.
First opening its doors in Montreal 50 years ago, Krinos began making Canadian feta using traditional Greek methods. Because mealtime is at the heart of Greek culture, those traditions of great food and hospitality are something Krinos wants to share with Canadians.
The brand has continuously expanded its offerings to include a wide range of feta varieties, each one carefully crafted to please different tastes.
Over the years, Krinos has partnered with renowned chefs from across Canada for its Krinos Feta Chef Series which featured its wide variety of feta blends used in creative dishes by each chef in their own style or cuisine.
Now, Krinos is celebrating the diversity and versatility of feta cheese with the Feta Your Way - Cook@Home series. It's inviting Canadians to channel their inner chef by creating their own recipes using Krinos feta.
With that in mind, here are some delicious feta recipes to get you inspired.

This dish features tender broccolini roasted to perfection tossed in a zesty vinaigrette made from white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey.
The salad is topped with Krinos Kalamata olives, toasted walnuts for a delightful crunch, and, of course, the star of the show, Krinos Feta. The feta brings a creamy, tangy flavour that pairs beautifully with the slightly charred broccolini and the vibrant dressing.
