Cut the feta cheese into cubes after removing it from the brine and patting it dry with paper towels.

Add a little olive oil to the bottom of a glass jar.

Layer the feta cubes in the jar, alternating with fresh thyme and rosemary.

Cut the red chili pepper slightly to release its flavor and add it to the jar.

Zest a lemon, avoiding the white part, and add the zest to the jar.

Pour olive oil and grape seed oil over the feta and herbs until everything is submerged.

Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate it for 2 to 3 days to allow the flavors to develop.

Store the marinated feta for about 1 to 2 weeks in the refrigerator, and do not discard the oil as it can be used for dressings.
