Watermelon and Feta Salad
The original recipe is made with Bulgarian feta, locally known as Sirene. It’s the most popular Bulgarian cheese, and while similar to the Greek feta cheese they are not really the same. Bulgarian white brine cheese has a grainy texture and is slightly crumbly.
Nonetheless, this recipe works great with Greek feta cheese as well. Bon apetit!
