Will do! Maybe, now that the pressure’s on, I will actually do it. Stay tuned.
This looks like it will hit the spot on a weeknight.
Hmm. I wonder if “bouyiourdi” derives from Chef Boyardee, the way the pastries called sarali derives from Sarah Lee.
No idea
Greek Mil Fay , made with crackers/cookies and instant pudding is the Greek transliteration of the more complicated Mille Feuille.
Bouyourdi existed before Boyardee, so maybe Chef Boyardee is named after baked feta.
Named after a tax document

I’m looking at different giouvetsi recipes re: spices.
My version is typically chicken/ meat, tomato, onion, cinnamon, oregano, bay leaf.
I’m going to try a version with my usual ingredients, with the addition of allspice and nutmeg. Some other recipes include clove and/or cumin.

My giblet giouvetsi, with onions, garlic, paprika, oregano, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and clove.
The one I usually make doesn’t have wine, paprika, allspice, clove or nutmeg. Will not add wine or paprika next time- it tastes good, but almost like goulash, which is a different flavour than the giouvetsi we are used to.
Seeing as its freezing this weekend i think ill make Stifado.
This was a nice meal last night. I used regular tuna in oil instead of smoked tuna, and I used some Carbone marinara and fresh cherry tomatoes instead of 400 grams of fresh tomatoes. I left out the sugar.
I am going to try to make pear glyko/ spoon sweets today
I’m not familiar with this Greek pasta with cheese, It looks delicious…
