What can be used instead of the Feta cheese?

You could also use smoked tofu (previously processed to a creamy texture in the food processor), or any other type of soft cheese.

It's similar to feta cheese. :) You can use goat cheese as well.

Salut! Am facut reteta acum cateva clipe.A iesit mai putin rumena budinca si ceva mai moale...si-am lasat-o si mai mult de 20 de minute.:(

Buna Diana! Ce varianta ai facut? Cea lacto-ovo sau vegana? Moale este ca textura, insa sta destul de teapana in farfurie, mai ales dupa ce se raceste un pic.

Clar, o voi incerca! Numai o intrebare am : conteaza daca cuptorul e electric? Este valabila temperatura pentru orice tip de cuptor? Multumesc!

Eu am cuptor pe gaz. Nu stiu ce setari se fac la cel electric, dar nu cred ca ar afecta in vreun fel reteta, atat timp cat temperatura e aceeasi. Astept sa imi spui cum ti-a iesit! :D
