What food isn’t better whipped? Boring old butter tastes more fresh-from-the-farm, cream becomes a sumptuous crown for any dessert, and mashed potatoes are so fluffy and light that carb watchers will wonder why they ever exorcised the tuber. But for foods that are already most-wanted in their natural form, can a good whipping really make them better? When we heard that Azure serves whipped-up feta with pita as a starter, we jumped to try it.

We came upon this app not a moment too soon. We’ve been offered the same olive oils, infused butters, tapenades, and hummus all over town, and it’s started to spread too thin. There are a few added touches here: roasted red peppers and a dollop of cream cheese are blended into the mix to create a silky spread laced with a Middle Eastern kick. It’s enough to whisk you away, indeed.

Available for $6 at Azure, in the Lenox Hotel, 61 Exeter Street, in Boston. Call (617) 933-4800.
