The thing about living in Greece is that it's very weird seeing everyone acting like they are in Disneyland and the people who thought Greg's sausagepie is the peak of food discovering a whole new world of pastry

>>21491734
Mmmm. Can't wait. I'm going in two weeks.

>>21491734
I love the hot dogs/sausage they use in greece for a "sausage roll". It has a very distinct taste that I've never come across anywhere else. I really like it. I always pair it with a cold chocolate milk - it's absolute kino.

>>21491764
This one in particular.

>>21491765
chokolaten hmmmmm zeus approved

for me it's xD :O lolo

>>21491694 (OP)
Nah, leek & feta for me.

>>21491764
That sounds like loukanikopita,you can find that in most furnaces or places that make coffee,am personally not a fan,these days I have a few selected shops that I eat and a few selected that I drink coffee from.
Supermarkets like masoutis actually have good meals in packets (pic related) and in cases you can get better coffee in a sklavenitis market rather than the local Mikel,grigoris,coffee island,il toto and Don't make the mistake that more money means bigger and tastier portion especially if you don't have Greek friends around

>>21491818
>loukanikopita
Exactly, I fucking love that, paired with this>>21491765
>am personally not a fan
interesting

My other favorite thing is bougatsa me tiri - I've heard thats more of a Thessaloniki/Northen Greece thing because in other places they call bougatsa the one with semolina custard.

>>21491694 (OP)

>>21491694 (OP)
man I once tried using phyllo dough (store bought) and that shit broke easily. Most of them, at least. Leaving me with a bunch of unusable sheets.

>>21491825
Bugatsa it's definitely not very common eaten in Athens,you can find it with feta and spinach,with minced meat or even with Nutella

>>21491836
You have to be gentle anon, also some brands are better than others. I always try to buy the best quality.
>>21491839
Didn't know that, the cheese bougatsa is really creamy in Thessaloniki, I wonder if they mix it with yogurt or maybe cream cheese.

>>21491847
yea, I guess it doesn't help the fact that they were frozen, despite me letting them thaw out I guess it's prone. Even worse, they were rolled up like a sheet of aluminum foil!

>>21491833
Even without checking I know Dino Stamatopoulos was involved with that episode

>>21491847
>Thessaloniki
I just got to say, I think it's extremely cool that you've visited such a historical place, or even live there.

>>21491849
I let them thaw in the fridge slowly from the day before. Recently they stopped having my go to brand in the store, this one>>21491700
was made with it - it browns really nice. But now I buy a new brand which doesn't brown so well>>21491698
but they put really fine semolina between the sheets so they don't stick together, I appreciate that - although it doesn't brown as well as the other it is crispier which is nice.

>>21491857
I'm half malakas. My grandma is from Thasos :)

>>21491866
That semolina between the sheets sounds like it helps but probably would have to give it like a brush of oil/egg/butter whatever before baking to induce the browning, no?

>I'm half malakas. My grandma is from Thasos
That's awesome. Very beautiful city/town whatever.

>>21491849
>>21491866
When they are cold it's harder for them to break - but yeah you have to be gentle, I always break a couple but it doesn't affect the final product.

Here's my recipe for the tiropita>>21491764
if anyone is interested.

>>21491871
>Very beautiful city/town whatever.
It's an island. It's lovely there.

>>21491874
>>21491871
Yeah a butter or olive brush will induce browning. I don't put egg on the final sheet at the top.

>>21491882
>island
nice.

I guess perhaps the semolina flour sort of impacts the browning of the final product? Maybe gets in the way of the process that occurs for it to brown in the first place? Just making a wild guess.

>>21491886
You would think that but the one without semolina browns better for some reason.

>>21491894
>You would think that but the one without semolina browns better for some reason.
Yea, that's exactly what I'm trying to say. I think the semolina flour is what prevents it from properly browning. So, it'd probably be a good idea to brush oil on the top before baking since the semolina might just end up reabsorbing the fat from the dough before it can properly cause the reaction to turn it brown?

>>21491925
Oh...sorry I misunderstood.

>>21491930
No apologies needed, have a good day.

>>21491941

Is it easy to make?

>>21492582
yes its practically "green" junk food considering the phyllo is ready made and with tons of potassium sorbate and glycerol

Looks like dolphin pussy. I hate dolphin pussy.

>>21492781
It's called loukanikopita,what the fuck is your problem you double nigger?? what's with the knee jerk reaction?

>>21492943
that barbarian inspired dish insults Zeus

>>21492943
do you also say hlektrikofotismos or hlektrikokinito?

>>21492582
Yes>>21491874
Just add some spinach that has been sauted with olive oil or butter and some black pepper.

>>21492781
>>21492966
In some places they call it loukanikopita in some places they call it loukanopita. Who cares.

>>21492981
noone was calling loukanopita loukanikopiuta before the proliferation of the internet among normies, circa 2012 (with luben mikeius kanekoeidi iiek vourkoglou on twitter etc) but since team lukanikopita are so vehemently in favour of strict albeit completely abstract grammar rules saying there is no word or root loukano here is a rule the always seem to overlook

>>21493133
I didn't go to school in Greece but I would spend all my summers there. You can put a lot of kg in 3 months :( And I was even playing football (soccer) almost every day and swimming lol.
>>21493152
Mmm. Maybe you are right. Regardless, myself and the people around me always called it loukanopita but I've heard retards from the south say it the other way.

Idk who this luben mikeius is?
