Directions:
- Remove rind from cheese and cut into 1-inch chunks.
- Pulse cheese in a food processor until the size of fine pea gravel. (This was how the recipe was written. You want small pieces of cheese, like the size of Nerds candy or maybe a little bigger.).
- Place the cheese in a bowl and stir in onion and garlic.
- Add oregano by rubbing it between your fingers to release the flavor.
- Add black pepper and extra-virgin olive oil and mix well. (If using red pepper flakes, add them in this step.).
- Cover and let stand 4 hours at room temperature.
- Serve on crackers or rounds of bread.
