Feta Dressing
When you say “Greek” in Oxford, Mississippi, most people will think you are talking about one of three things: sororities and fraternities, antebellum architecture, or Angelo Mistolis’s feta cheese salad dressing. This dressing of mine is great on cold-cut foot-longs and on salads of all sorts.
Cooks' Note
For gift giving, I like to pour the dressing into a Mason jar. Since the recipe makes 1½ cups, it is enough for one half-pint to give—and some to keep for myself!
