  • Little Gem, Feta, and Cumin Salad

     

    Serves: 8

    Ingredients

    2 1/4 cups feta, preferably Bulgarian (about 10 ounces), crumbled, divided
    1 cup plus 3 tablespoons plain whole-milk yogurt
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
    1 small garlic clove, chopped
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    1 teaspoon cumin seeds
    1 1/2 pounds Little Gem lettuce or hearts of romaine, stemmed and torn by hand
    2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves


    Preparation

    Purée 1 3/4 cups feta, yogurt, ground cumin, lemon zest, and garlic in a food processor until smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    Toast cumin seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring until seeds are aromatic and slightly darker in color, 3-4 minutes. Let cool; set aside.

    Toss lettuce in a large bowl with enough dressing to coat. Season salad with salt and pepper. Garnish with cumin seeds, oregano, and remaining 1/2 cup feta.
