Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Garlic: Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
- Spinach: If using fresh spinach, wash and thoroughly dry the leaves. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out excess water.
- Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté for a few minutes until it wilts (about 3-5 minutes). If using frozen spinach, you can skip this step, but ensure it is fully thawed and drained.
- Allow the spinach to cool slightly, then roughly chop it.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped spinach, and crumbled feta cheese.
- Add the sour cream and Worcestershire sauce to the mixture.
- Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated and the dip is smooth.
- Taste the dip and add salt and pepper if needed (often the feta cheese will be salty enough).
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Once chilled, give the dip a good stir and transfer it to a serving bowl.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of additional chopped spinach or a touch of crumbled feta if desired.
- Serve with pita bread, crackers, vegetable sticks, or your favorite dipping snacks.
Tips:
- For a smoother dip, blend the ingredients until they reach your desired consistency.
- Fresh spinach can be steamed and then squeezed dry before adding, but frozen spinach can also be used after it has been thawed and drained well.
- You can adjust the amount of garlic to your taste to make the dip more or less garlicky.
- Letting the dip chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving allows the flavors to meld together.
- Serve with a variety of dippers such as vegetable sticks, pita bread, or crackers.
