Saganaki is one of my favorite meal accompaniments – who doesn't love warm, salty cheese? I have never made this restaurant and Greek fair favorite at home, but feeling inspired by the recent Greek dinner I prepared, I decided to finally attempt this dish.
I ultimately decided to attempt an untraditional version (or at least a version I have not encountered previously) - Feta Saganaki - mostly because I had purchased a block of feta for my Greek dinner party. This Cook's Illustrated recipe was incredibly fast and simple to prepare and the final result was great. Warm, slightly browned on top, and flavorful. I still think that using the traditional cheese (halloumi I think?) may result in a more tasty saganaki because of the salt content of the cheese, but I definitely see myself making Feta Saganaki again.
