📝 Preparation Steps
1
Heat a grill for medium-high indirect cooking. Brush the block of feta with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season well with kosher salt. Put the block of feta directly on the grill grates over direct heat and cook until lightly browned, about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Remove the feta—a fish spatula is best for this.

Crumble the grilled feta, reserving a few tablespoons for garnishing, and add to a food processor along with the yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, zest and juice of the lemon, and a heavy pinch of kosher salt. Blend until smooth and doubled in volume, about ⏱️ 5 minutes total.
