The whole family is hooked on “Odessa Pate”, stored in the refrigerator for a week or longer

Looking for a simple and easy snack to meet friends or a family holiday? We tell you how to make pate with cheese and Bulgarian pepper, familiarity with which we owe the famous Odessa cuisine.



Her best dishes have absorbed ideas from Jewish, Ukrainian, Greek, Armenian and Moldovan culinary traditions. Our “southern pate” was no exception, traces of which lead to Greece. A popular snack of sweet pepper and feta cheese is called htipiti and is served with bread or as a sauce.

How to Make Pate Ingredients
  • 250g hard cheese
  • 120g melted cheese
  • 0.5 tbsp chopped sweet pepper
  • 0.5 tsp chopped chili pepper
  • 0.25 tbsp mayonnaise
  • salt and favorite spices to taste


Preparation
  1. How to make pate, you probably already guessed. First, rub hard cheese on a fine grater.


  2. To make it easier to grate melted cheese, cool it beforehand in the freezer.


  3. Send Bulgarian pepper for 30-40 minutes in the oven, heated to 220 degrees. Turn over from time to time to bake evenly.

  4. Put the pepper in a bowl, let it cool. Cut in half, remove the middle of the seeds. Carefully sipping over the edge, peel off the skin. If the pepper is ready, it will easily separate.
  5. Mix the pepper without skins with chili peppers, hard and melted cheese, mayonnaise. Add salt and condiments. Pass through a meat grinder or grind with a blender.


  6. Replacement of fresh pepper can be left from winter pickled pepper.
  7. Put it in a bowl and serve it to the table. Bon appetit!




Ready-made pate is usually used as a spread for sandwiches. You can stuff eggs with them, serve with pieces of lavash - as a sauce or an addition to second courses.
