Liptauer Cheese

Makes 1 3/4 cups

This can be spread on a plate or packed into crocks and served with cucumber slices, celery sticks and radishes. If you can find the Hungarian Lipto cheese, use it in place of the feta and cream cheese.

• 4 oz. feta cheese, crumbled
• 4 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 3 Tbsp. sour cream
• 2 anchovy fillets, mashed to a paste
• 1 Tbsp. finely minced green onion
• 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
• 1 1/2 tsp. paprika
• 1/2 tsp. caraway seeds smashed or bruised to release flavor
• sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

With a wooden spoon or handheld mixer, cream the feta, cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.

Keeps for 2 weeks, refrigerated.
