Recipe FAQ
- → Can I use another cheese instead of feta?
Goat cheese or ricotta are creamy alternatives, though feta's tang pairs best with honey and pepper.
- → Should the baguette be served warm?
Warm toasted baguette enhances both texture and flavor but can be served room temperature if preferred.
- → Is this suitable for vegetarians?
Yes, all ingredients are vegetarian-friendly. Just ensure your feta is made with vegetarian rennet.
- → How do I toast the baguette?
Slices can be toasted in an oven or toaster until golden and crisp, usually for 5 minutes at moderate heat.
- → Can I add herbs or other toppings?
Fresh thyme or rosemary work well, or add a sprinkle of crushed walnuts for added texture.
