Sous Vide Pork Gyro
When in Greece, one of the first things I’ll eat is a pork gyro wrapped in a pita. Slices of pork shoulder area seasoned/marinated then stack on a vertical rod then slow roasted on a vertical rotisserie. It’s juicy, flavourful, filling but…hard to duplicate at home.
Sous Vide Steak
Have you heard of “sous vide”? It’s a French word that literally translates to “under vacuum”. In more detail, sous vide is a cooking method that involves vacuum-sealing food then placing the packet in temperature regulated water bath
Greek Sausages (Intro)
I am a big fan of sausages and when I go to Greece in the summer, it’s a joy to have an array available from the market. The choices vary, depending upon where in Greece you are but let’s do a run-down of Greek sausages.
Greek Style Roast Chicken Thighs
The flavour profile here is classic Greek: lemon, garlic, salt, pepper, dried Greek oregano. This chicken is best with roast potatoes or fries and it’s doable weeknight or weekend.
Makalo With Keftedakia
Makalo is a Macedonian gravy. You’ll find in the kitchens of northern Greeks’ home in Florina and Kastoria and I’ve read, as far south as Karditsa in Thessaly.
Makalo is basically a gravy. You have oil, (stock), spices and seasonings. My mom would often add a bit of tomato (that was our family’s twist).
It’s a sauce I remember my parents, aunts and uncles always ate. It’s a gravy made for dipping, poaching eggs or simmering keftedes or chicken.
Pulled Pork
Last year, I brought pulled pork back, serving it at a couple of Christmas parties and it was a big hit! I am declaring pulled pork is back! It begins with a bone-in pork butt and as I stated earlier, this is the shoulder cut that’s below the neck. Good fat content, lots of flavour but after a good amount of cooking time, it becomes fork-tender.
