This viral recipe is as easy as it is delicious. A block of feta cheese is baked with cherry tomatoes, garlic, and olive oil until soft and jammy, then mashed into a creamy, tangy sauce and tossed with pasta. It's a hands-off, one-pan wonder that delivers big flavor with minimal effort.

A Slice of History

This dish, known as "Uunifetapasta," was created by Finnish food blogger Jenni Häyrinen in 2019. It went viral on social media platforms like TikTok in 2021, leading to feta shortages in some countries. Its massive popularity is due to its simplicity, minimal prep time, and delicious, restaurant-quality results.
