I’m curious about the addition of orange juice. It seems counterintuitive as it’s a savoury cake

[@chrispcooks2909]

I can’t really explain, it’s how we’ve always made it. A lot of savoury Cypriot pastries have orange juice in the mix. I think it’s more of a background note than a prominent flavour.

Orange juice in these recipes is like coffee in chocolate cakes. It really boosts the taste.

What can l use instead of orange juice TIA

[@chrispcooks2909]

Some people use fizzy orange like Fanta instead of juice. But sprite is also used. If you don’t like anything like that you could use sparkling water.
