Soak the gelatin in cold water. Sauté the shallot and garlic in a little butter. Strip the thyme leaves and rosemary needles from the stems and chop finely. Crumble the feta cheese into small pieces and mash with a fork. Mix the cream cheese, sour cream, shallot, garlic, and feta cheese, and season with pepper and cayenne pepper. Squeeze out the gelatin, dissolve it in a small saucepan over low heat, and stir into the cheese mixture. Divide the mixture between four 100 ml molds and chill for at least three hours. Briefly dip the molds containing the mousse in hot water. Loosen the edges with a knife and turn each one out onto a plate. Serve with fresh sun-dried tomatoes marinated in oil, mild and hot chili peppers, olives, spring onions, and flatbread, baguette, or ciabatta.
