If you're a cheese lover, Trader Joe's new Tirokafteri Spicy Greek Cheese Spread will be right up your alley.
The new Tirokafteri Spicy Greek Cheese Spread is based on a popular Greek dish called tirokafteri, which closely translates into "flaming cheese." Trader Joe's take on this classic spread involves combining two cows’ milk cheeses – one of which is a white cheese and the other is Greek Anthotyros – with a third feta cheese made of sheep’s and goat’s milk. The triple cheese combo is then combined with Florina peppers, which have been roasted and brined in red wine vinegar with salt and sugar. This unique combination results in a spicy cheese dip that pairs perfectly with pita cheese, but also makes a great sandwich spread.
