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.

My personal favorite is spoon sweet made with orange peel! I use Greek honey to make mine, but it's just because I like the flavor of the honey. I would find a recipe online - I unfortunately don't use a recipe, I just dump the peels in a pot and pour honey over it, and simmer the mixture until I feel like it's done. I like the peels to be cooked through. Sometimes I add a cinnamon stick to the mixture but I don't always.
I love oranges. I will try it!

I have learned so much about Greek cuisine by being on this forum! I know that there are standard recipes that everyone seems to cook.
For example, you can get souvlaki all over. Everyone seems to serve a village salad with slight variations. Most regions seem to make moussaka. There are tons of others.
I have also noticed that each region has their own specialties. How do you go about learning about them?
