I have a lot of zucchini from my garden and also that people have given me.

I have already made a few batches of zucchini in tomato sauce so I've decided to fry some.

My first batch was soggy and I don't know what went wrong! Help?!
 

How do you make your cabbage salad?

I love Greek cabbage salad. My family makes it very simply with cabbage and a ladolemono. I add feta cheese because, why not LOL.

I have had other versions with other veggies and a different seasoning - like one version I had blended cabbage with carrot and had an apple cider vinegar dressing.

How do you guys do it?

Grilling a whole chicken?

I have to feed a crowd soon and I decided to grill whole chickens... I am trying to figure out the best way to do it. I need to grill maybe 4-5 whole chickens. I don't have a spit.

I was thinking to butterfly them and marinate them in a ladolemono, then grill them until they're cooked, rotating them often. Do you think this will work?

Do Greeks use sourdough starter?

I read in a cookbook that Greeks sometimes use a sourdough-like starter to make some of their breads.

I didn't realize this. Also, is this really true?

I do detect a bit of a "flavor" sometimes, like sourdough, when I am eating bread in Greece.

Fresh tomatoes in fasolakia?

I need help figuring something out.

Whenever I make Fasolakia, I usually use some sort of a canned tomato product like sauce, paste, or even diced or crushed tomatoes.

I have a bunch of fresh tomatoes I want to use this time instead and I have never done this before. Any advice?

Greek Dishes with Almonds

I remember driving through Crete that there were a ton of almond trees. Yet, when I think of nuts that are used in Greek cooking, I automatically think of walnuts.

Do Greeks cook with a lot of almonds or does it depend on the region? What do they typically do with them? I know you can use almonds in baklava...
