Tiropita

Prep Time: 25 minutes | Cook Time: 30 minutes Step 1: In a large bowl, crumble feta cheese and combine with whole milk ricotta cheese, grated kefalotyri cheese, beaten eggs, chopped fresh mint, fresh dill, ground nutmeg, salt, and black pepper until evenly mixed. Step 2: Lay a sheet of phyllo pastry on a clean work surface, brush generously with melted butter and olive oil, and cut lengthwise into 3 equal strips. Step 3: Place a tablespoon of cheese filling at the bottom end of each strip. Fold one corner over the filling diagonally to form a triangle, then continue folding up the strip flag-style until sealed. Brush the outer surface with melted butter. Step 4: Arrange cheese triangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with white sesame seeds and black sesame seeds. Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 25-30 minutes until puffed, golden, and shatteringly crisp. Drizzle lightly with warm wildflower honey before serving.
