I bake chicken all the time.

This last time, I marinated the chicken in ladolemono for about two hours before arranging it in the baking dish.

I saved some of the ladolemono from the batch (I didn't use it to marinate, I just put it in a dish) and then arranged slicked potatoes around the chicken.

I brushed the potatoes with the Ladolemono and then baked the chicken as usual.

It as so good!
 
It truly is yummy. Ladilemono can also be used with other meats as well. Even fish. Its sis delicious on fish.

Can you marinate the fish in it or should I just put it on the fish right before cooking?

Not sure I would marinate the fish - the acid might cook it. If I marinated it, I would do it for maybe 30 minutes and then cook it.

Making Kalitsounia?

Anyone here know how to make kalitsounia who can explain it? I have a scribbled, old recipe a friend, whose family is from Crete, gave me. It kind of doesn't make sense. I want something a little more professional so I can wrap my mind around it.

Does anyone have a good, well written recipe and maybe even some tips on pulling it off?

Regional Differences of Moussaka

I’ve recently developed a fascination with Moussaka and have been experimenting with different recipes at home. I know the classic version typically includes layers of eggplant, minced meat, and béchamel sauce, but I’ve heard that there are many regional variations throughout Greece and beyond.

I’m curious to learn more about these differences! For example, I’ve read that some areas use potatoes or zucchini instead of eggplant, while others may include different spices or even omit the béchamel sauce entirely. How does Moussaka differ between the islands and the mainland, or even across different Mediterranean countries?

If anyone has experience with or knowledge of these regional differences, I’d love to hear your thoughts, favorite versions, or any family recipes you’re willing to share. What makes your region’s Moussaka unique?

Smoothies Inspired by Greek Flavors?

I’ve been exploring new ways to add variety to my smoothies, and I’m really interested in trying out some Greek-inspired flavors. I love the idea of incorporating ingredients like Greek yogurt, honey, fruits, and maybe even some unique Greek spices or herbs. I’m looking for smoothie recipes that are not only delicious but also packed with nutrients—something that could work as a quick breakfast or post-workout snack.

Do you have any favorite Greek-inspired smoothie recipes or tips on how to bring those classic Greek flavors into a smoothie?

Favorite High Protein Greek Inspired Foods?

I am working on eating a higher protein diet. Doctor says I need to reduce carb intake for my health!

I’m already a big fan of dishes like grilled souvlaki and Greek yogurt, but I’d love to explore more options that pack a good protein punch. I’m trying to keep my meals both healthy and flavorful, and Greek cuisine seems like the perfect fit with all the fresh ingredients and delicious flavors.

Do you have any go-to high-protein Greek recipes or specific foods I should try?

Ikaria Blue Zone Cuisine?

I’ve been reading about the Blue Zones, and Ikaria’s longevity and lifestyle really caught my attention, especially their approach to food and diet. I’m curious to learn more about the specific foods and dishes that are common in Ikaria’s Blue Zone cuisine. I know their diet plays a big role in their health and long life, but I’d love to dive deeper into what makes it so special.

What are some typical Ikarian meals or ingredients that stand out? Are there any traditional recipes or unique cooking techniques that are worth trying at home? I’m particularly interested in learning about plant-based dishes, how they use local herbs, and any tips on incorporating their dietary principles into everyday meals.
