Greetings to Mexico! Thank you so much for your comments. Glad you found our video helpful. In Greece we eat watermelon on its own, usually instead of dessert after a meal, not as a salad (Greeks like to eat fruit after a meal). many Greeks also eat feta with watermelon because they like the combination of salty and sweet.

You're very welcome :)

I'm jealous you can find it in Germany. I'll have to get some more in my next visit to Greece :)

Hi there. Yes, the best way is to slightly fry them in the pan with a tiny bit of olive oil (you mainly use the olive oil so they don't stick in the pan). They only need a minute or so of frying, as you only need to get the fat to warm up and get tender :)

Hi there. A few years ago you could find it sold in specialist Greek online shops. But due to its short use-by date and the issues with importing products to the UK after Brexit, it is difficult to stock it. All the stockists we searched online show it Out Of Stock at the moment. But if you keep on searching for it on Google from time to time you might get lucky :)

Hi there. Unfortunately most foreign cheeses sold in major supermarkets taste inferior to the ones you get in their respective countries. If you follow our Feta review series we have struggles to find a good Feta cheese in UK supermarkets, as they put cost and profit above quality of ingredients and traditional methods of cheese making.

Hi Tony. So great to hear from you!! Stop making me jealous with all that Greek food!! I was thinking of something quick for this evening but now you have tempted me to do something Greek :)

Hi there. For this particular recipe we use 150gr-200gr Gouda or Regato cheese (Cheddar is fine too)

Oh no!!!! Is it the almonds you're alergic too? Keep an eye on future videos as we review our favourite Greek milk chocolate, so it won't have any nuts in it :)

Hi there. The authentic Greek Salad recipe only uses extra virgin olive oil. There are a few areas in Greece where they use a tiny bit of vinegar too. However, even though Greeks love lemons and lemon juice in their food, it is not used in a Greek salad.

Greetings to Pakistan!!! We will be reviewing LACTA pretty soon, together with the many flavours it comes with these days. In our next visit to Greece we will also stock up on BREAK to review too :) Thank you very much for watching our channel :)

You are very welcome! Really glad you enjoyed our video :)

Hello there! Sometimes we find that people hate cucumbers (or even tomatoes) because the only cucumbers they have tried are the ones sold in the big supermarkets, which are full of water, and they are completely tasteless. If you find your way to Greece (or any part of the south of Europe) you should defnitely try some of the cucumbers locally produced and I am sure you will love them!! Anyway, if you really hate them then you can make a Greek salad with all the other ingredients, keep some for you and add cucumbers to the rest of it for your guests :)

@Greekosophy I hear what you're saying. We used to spend many months in Thessaloniki, Kalikratia, and then also Litohoro at the base of Mount Olympus. Every time I would try it, and. ....nope! Not for me! However, as you say, the tomatoes from Greece are the absolute best ever from anywhere. I won't hear different from anyone about that!!!! Lol

@@nicholaskemp2246 You spend time in some of the most beautiful parts in Greece :) Have you ever tries Xilagouro? It's a type of cucumber which is not as watery, in fact it's very crispy but full of flavour.

Hi Judy. Glad to agreed with us that this place is a trye gem when it comes to local food and wines. I love that they promote Cretan wines and they are very knowledgable when it comes to wine, so you can always get reccomended a perfect pairing for your meal :)

Thank you very much for your kind comments! We will be posting more recipes on how to turn other fruit and vegetables into delecious spoon sweets, so keep an eye for them soon :)

🤓😂😂😂

You're very welsome :)

@@Greekosophy Greek mineral water = Best in the world.

Thank you :)

That's a very interesting suggestion. We're growing parsley in our back garden so we will give it a go :)

Hi there. We really struggled with which 10 fruits to put in the list and, you are right, Pomegranates deserve to be there too. However, we find that very few tourits eat pomegranates on their own, so we decided to use only fruits that they can buy and enjoy n their own, without having to add them to salads, etc.

Hi there. You are correct. However, this product did not have any such initials which made us suspicious that it may not be a Greek product at all.

Hi there. I'm not sure what you mean by 'Glimpse', can you please explain? This is a recipe for a Greek spoon sweet and in Greece you can use the skin only or the whole fruit.

@@Greekosophy misspelling watching the tennis I’ll get back to you later

@@Greekosophy that was definitely a misspelled word. The word should have been γλικω. In other words it was jam not gliko to koutaliou.

@@user-wd6ni4xu4n Hello again. A spoon sweet does not have to have the skin of the fruit (or the orange, in this occasion) only. For example, a fig or a pear spoon sweet contains the entire fruit. You will find many areas in Greece using the entire orange to make spoon sweet ( a search on the internet will show that there are recipes for orange spoon sweet made from the skin only and made with the entire fruit).

@@user-wd6ni4xu4n :) :)

Ha ha ha. Very true :)

Hi Alan. I can only speak about this particular Lentil Soup recipe, as I don't know the other ones you refer to. This channel is about Greece and this particular recipe is a traditional Greek Lentil Soup recipe. It may be similar to others, but we can't help that. Regarding the length of the video, the feedback we receive from our subscribers and viewers shows that they prefer a long format, where we show step by step how we make a particular dish, as they can see every detail and learn every tip we can offer.

Thank you very much! Our love and greetings to the land down under :)

Ha ha ha!! It's great you say this and I feel very honoured. In fact, Vincenzo's Plate is a favourite channel of ours and each time we cook an Italian dish we follow his recipes! I guess we both share our love for traditional cooking using fresh and high quality ingredients. Not to mention our passion for our countries and our frustration when we see traditional recipes made the wrong way!!! :)

That's right. It's one of the oldest techniques for cheese making. I'll have to try and find Panela to try it :)

Let us know how it went! With olives, you need to make sure they are good quality, unpitted olives and, ideally, not the kind you get in big chain supermarkets. Pitted olives are not tasty at all as they use chemicals to keep them in shape and the taste just goes away. The best way to shop for good olives is to visit a specialist shop that imports food from various countries and that sells olives in bulk, so you can try some different varieties and pick the ones you like :)

Oh yes! Now we're talking! It elevates that omelette and makes it ten times better! :)

Not sure if you've noticed, but there is a STOP button in all videos where if you don't like what you watch you can stop the video and watch something else :)

Thank you very much! Hope you will enjoy eating in most of these places :)

You are very welcome :) I hope you have a wonderful time in Greece next month!

I'm afraid there is no way I can turn into a vegan :)

I have been living in the UK for the past 30+ years :) Please don't feel sorry for me, apart from the weather the UK is fine :)

Oh yes it was! :)
