Mash the white cheese with a fork, and if it is very salty, soak it in water for 5 minutes and drain.
Finely chop the parsley.
Mix the olive oil and black pepper into the cheese.
Add the herbs, leaving the cheese slightly coarse rather than turning it into a cream.
Spread the cheese mash on a plate and drizzle a little olive oil over the top.
Chill the cheese mash for 10 minutes so the oil and black pepper spread evenly.
Serve cold and bring it to the table before the surface dries out.
💡 Tip: Mashing the cheese with a fork leaves a coarser, more appetizing texture than using a blender.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve in a deep glass bowl, with a pinch of red pepper flakes and a few drops of pomegranate molasses drizzled on top.
