An Amish farmer/friend just gave me about 5 pounds of homemade feta.

Can I freeze it or should I just share it?

Here is some info regarding Greek Feta.

It sounds like you can keep it in a brine and it will keep well. I have never done this so I am not speaking from experience. Lucky you!

He didn't give me any brine- just the bricks of cheese. From your info it looks like i

cna make a brine and store it in that.

Thanks, Dawn!

When I worked in the cheese shop, we used to keep in the brine in a pretty glass container. We

would sell it with extra brine in the small individual containers. It was yummy! We did have to make our own brine if we ran low/out....

It was a fun presentation, next to a similiar glass container filled with Montrachet in an olive oil/spice mixture.....YUM!!
