Place the white cheese in a wide bowl and start mashing it with a fork, leaving some coarse grains.
Add the olive oil gradually, working in the thyme and black pepper as the cheese becomes creamy.
When the texture becomes spreadable, taste and adjust the spice balance.
Chill for 10 minutes and serve as a breakfast spread.
💡 Tip: Loosening the cheese with olive oil instead of water gives it a glossier texture.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cold on toasted bread.
