I don't know what else to call this ... I bumped into a recipe for ladolemono that had olive oil, lemon, oregano, garlic, and some onion. I decided to make a ladolemono similar to this, but adjust the seasonings for fish.

I plan to make salmon this week! So instead of oregano I will be using freshly chopped dill, and I think garlic would be too strong from salmon so am going to use a small shallow and no onion either. What do you guys think? I think it sounds like it will be delicious, and I can maybe even use this for other seafood if it goes well.

Sound delicious! If you want to use garlic but not be that garlicky then just add one clove cut in half.

I agree - you can always dial back on the garlic and not use as much, but there is also nothing wrong with using shallot or onion instead. You can play with the flavors!
 

Other Dips to Serve at Greek Dinner Party?

I mentioned in a previous thread that I made taramasalata for a dinner party. I want to serve other dips or spreads. I am thinking three is a good number. I don't want to serve hummus - I want to do something different.

I was thinking tzatziki and one other. What do you suggest? I was thinking the one with eggplant or the Fava spread that I see sometimes in menus.

Greek Style Nougat Confection?

I adore nougat candy, but here in Canada, the real stuff from Greece is challenging to find. I know, I can buy it online, but sometimes when I get it the candy isn't fresh, which is a bummer.

I am interested in learning how to make my own. Has anyone done this and found a good recipe?

I am seeing a lot of recipes online but most look Italian. Is it the same thing or is it a little different? I really just don't know where to start.

Most Popular Spoon Sweets?

I am interested in making my own spoon sweets. What are the most popular? I have eaten cherry, grape, lemon peel, and orange peel spoon sweets. Are they easy or hard to make? Are they similar to jams or other preserves? I find these tastier than American-style jams, with more of the fruit flavors coming out. Any advice is appreciated.

Can you share a good homemade phyllo recipe?

I think the problems with making homemade phyllo that I have been having have been my fault, not the recipe's. I suspect I have been overworking the dough. I mentioned in a previous thread that I have been having issues.

Just in case it is the recipe I have, though, can anyone share a good recipe with me?

Gluten Free Pastitsio "Krema"

I have a gluten free friend and I am fairly new to getting the hang of pastitsio "krema" as it is. I am wondering if you have any tips for giving it the same texture without the gluten. Already I know that because there is no gluten, this will be tricky. I had an early attempt that was a disaster (very runny).

I had a moussaka where the gluten free "krema" turned out to be mashed potatoes. I mean, would this work on pastitsio? I am hesitant because it's not the same thing - but it had a decent enough texture.
