Makes a wonderful spread for crostini or crackers. Idaho grapes are preferred for this recipe due to their unique flavor profile. Idaho table grapes are known for their sweet, juicy, and flavorful taste, which makes them a great choice for roasting. Roasting the grapes intensifies their natural sweetness, while bringing out their natural juices, which pairs well with the saltiness of the feta cheese. Idaho is home to a number of skilled cheesemakers who use traditional methods to produce a wide range of cheeses, including cheddar, gouda, blue cheese, and feta. These cheesemakers have honed their craft over generations, using age-old techniques to create artisanal cheeses that are renowned for their rich, complex flavors.
