1. Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and chill until ready to use. This can be made several hours ahead.
2. In a large bowl mix feta, eggs, scallions, parsley and pepper.
3. Set up a work station: Set out your roll of phyllo sheets and cover them with a damp dish towel. You’ll need a small bowl of water, a pizza cutter, and a large plate or tray to lay the rolls on.
4. Place one sheet of phyllo on your work surface with the longer edge facing you. Cut it, vertically, into 4 equal strips. Put about 2 teaspoons of the feta mixture near the end of one strip, leaving a one-inch border on each side. Fold the 2 long sides of the phyllo over so they meet in the middle, covering the cheese filling. Roll up the filling and keep rolling until you get almost to the end of the strip. Moisten the end with some water and then finish rolling. The water helps seal the roll. Repeat with the other 3 rolls. Set them on a plate. Repeat the process until you use up your filling. Leftover phyllo sheets can be kept in the fridge for a few days, tightly sealed in plastic. (see photos and tips in the blog post)
