Wheat Salad With Sundried Tomatoes, Dodoni Feta And Herbs

No ratings yet
I love a great, hearty Greek salad that can double as a main course. I created this recipe for a wheat salad with sundried tomatoes, Dodoni Feta, and herbs with that in mind, using My Greek Table season 4 sponsor’s Dodoni Greek feta. It speaks to the medley of Mediterranean diet ingredients that are healthy, timeless and meant to sate our palates and appetites. There are many forms of wheat used in dishes like this all over the Mediterranean. The addition of sun-dried tomatoes speaks to the long tradition of preserving the foods of summer for enjoyment in winter. Herbs have always been a seminal flavoring agent in every Mediterranean cuisine, more so, though in Greece than anywhere else. ANd the feta is the crowning element, adding tangy flavor, protein and enough pungency to balance against the earthiness of the wheat. Enjoy this any time of the year!
