Meredith Dairy Marinated Feta

• Meredith Dairy is a farmstead creamery located fifty miles west of Melbourne, Australia.
• Sheep’s and goat’s milk is gathered each morning, and by afternoon it’s transformed into yogurt and cubes of cheese. Once cubed, it’s submerged in premium, garlic-infused olive oil and layers of peppercorns and fresh herbs.
  
• The cheese was once known as Meredith Dairy’s “feta.”
• However, once the European Union established Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) labeling for feta cheese—meaning anything labeled “feta” had to be made in Greece, Meredith Dairy changed the cheese’s name.

While harder cheeses can stay fresh for up to two to three weeks when wrapped tightly and unopened, fresh style cheeses are best consumed within a few days. The best thing to do is to keep the cheese in one of your refrigerator drawers or the vegetable bin; this will help to keep your cheese from drying out. If your cheese is packed in olive oil or brine, store any leftovers in the liquid and follow package instructions. All cheeses and meats are perishables—by definition they degrade over time—so we encourage our customers to enjoy the cheese while it's in peak condition!
