Tomato Paste Feta Tarator is a Turkish-style savory dip made with Turkish white cheese, tomato paste, and usually olive oil. Despite the name, the cheese is not always Greek feta; recipes may add garlic, walnuts, herbs, or other seasonings.
To make Tomato Paste Feta Tarator, mash Turkish white cheese with tomato paste and olive oil until spreadable. Add garlic or walnuts if you like, then taste before seasoning because both the cheese and paste can already be salty.
Serve Tomato Paste Feta Tarator with crusty bread, toast, or crackers as a dip or meze. It also works alongside sliced vegetables or as part of a Turkish-style breakfast spread; its salty, savory flavor pairs well with fresh cucumber and tomato.
No, Tomato Paste Feta Tarator is a cheese-and-tomato-paste variation, while tarator recipes vary widely and may use walnuts, bread, garlic, or yogurt instead. The name refers to a family of dips rather than one fixed recipe, so ingredients differ by region and cook.
Tomato Paste Feta Tarator is based on Turkish white cheese, which resembles feta but is not always identical to it. White cheese varies in saltiness and firmness, so taste the mixture before adding extra salt or adjusting it with more olive oil.
Yes, Tomato Paste Feta Tarator can be made without garlic. The white cheese and tomato paste still provide a strong savory flavor, and you can add chopped parsley or a little lemon juice if you want freshness without garlic's sharpness.
Yes, you can prepare Tomato Paste Feta Tarator ahead and chill it in a covered container. Stir it before serving and taste again, since the cheese and tomato paste may seem saltier after the flavors have had time to blend.
Tomato Paste Feta Tarator keeps for about 2–3 days in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Use a clean spoon each time, and discard it if it has been left out for an extended period or develops an unusual smell or appearance.
Freezing Tomato Paste Feta Tarator is not recommended because the cheese can turn grainy and release water as it thaws. Make a smaller batch instead, keep it refrigerated, and use it within a few days for the best texture.
To make Tomato Paste Feta Tarator less salty, choose a milder white cheese and use less tomato paste, then balance the mixture with olive oil or a little lemon juice. Avoid adding salt until you have tasted the finished dip.

Tomato Paste Feta Tarator is a Turkish-style savoury dip made by combining Turkish brined white cheese with tomato paste. Tarator is a name used for various dips and sauces around the region; in this version, the cheese brings a salty, creamy base and the paste adds a concentrated tomato flavour. The English label says “feta,” but the Turkish name refers to beyaz peynir, which is not necessarily Greek feta.
Serve it with bread or fresh vegetables as part of a meze spread, or put it out at breakfast alongside other savoury dishes. It offers protein and calcium, with 9.2 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter plate, keep the portion modest and pair it with crunchy vegetables.
