Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Greek sweet bread (Koulourakia)

    • kshell on December 20, 2025

      I grew up eating this specific koulourakia recipe and it was always made with butter (and always delicious). Just now tried the olive oil version and it's equally good! Used a mellow olive oil. The dough seeps oil as it sits and makes it harder to shape the cookies when you're halfway through, but I don't see that the last batch suffered in any way. The end result seems about the same. 25 minutes is a bit too long in my oven.
