Preparation
Chef’s notes
Make-Ahead Tip:
You can make this dip up to 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. It is best to add the toppings just before serving since the olive oil topping can harden in the refrigerator.
Pro Tip:
Use cold feta, cream cheese, and sour cream to create a thicker dip. If a thicker dip is preferred, you can cover and refrigerate for the ingredients to thicken up a bit, just be sure to wait before topping with olive oil since the oil can solidify in the fridge.
