The Greek rusks are unique in the world. In Greece one can sight either hardtacks or rusks made from qualitative and healthy raw materials known with the Greek name 'Paximadi'. Undoubtedly the best paximadi comes from the island of Crete. Bakeries around the island offer an assortment of organic and traditional paximadi-twice-baked loaves made with chick-pea dredge or ancient island grains such as barley-that are dampened under the tap and are sprinkled with local olive oil. The Greek paximadi is a perfect supplement to the famous Mediterranean diet. It is used at breakfast measure at dinner and lunchtime next to the cease coat and as a interact to the afternoon tea or coffee. It is also perfect as a healthy snack throughout the whole day. The Greek paximadi and especially the Cretan one it is exported throughout the world as it is a sought after Greek product.
Do you have a recipe for dakos (cretan barley rusks)? I mean to make the dakos from flour yeast etc. I live in Canada and it is very expensive to buy dakos here. I'd like to bake my own but can't find a recipe.
I'm a retired man now living in Crete. I choose Chania Crete because is a peaceful place unique for people that wants culture good food sea and mountains happy people to speak with....[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
