Saganaki

Saganaki – This amazingly delicious Greek appetizer is named after the single-serving frying pan it is cooked in. Pan seared kefalograviera, kasseri or sheep’s milk feta cheese is melted in a small frying pan until it is bubbling. Brandy is poured over the cheese then lit for a few seconds to sear the outside of the appetizer (now shout “Opa!”). The flames are doused with lemon juice, and you can scoop up and eat the melty cheese with table bread.
