Ingredients

1 pound feta cheese, drained well

5 large sprigs fresh dill

5 sprigs fresh flat-leaf parsley

1 scallion, including green parts

1 teaspoon whole pink peppercorns

1 teaspoon crushed red-pepper flakes

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Preparation

Cut feta into 1/2-inch-thick slices, wiping knife each time to keep cheese from crumbling. Arrange on a serving dish.

Pick leaves from herbs, and chop finely. Slice scallion into thin rounds. Combine herbs and scallion in a small bowl; stir in peppercorns, red-pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon oil. Spoon herb mixture over feta. Drizzle with remaining tablespoon oil, and serve.
