Making Cretan Bread & Food tasting

 
 

Experience Authentic Cretan Baking and Food tasting

Join us for a hands-on journey into Cretan traditions! We’ll begin with a warm welcome over local tea or coffee before diving into the art of kneading dough. You’ll shape your own bread, then let it rise while we prepare a variety of Cretan appetizers, including cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, local cheese, veggie pies, and Cretan-style tzatziki (xygalo).

What we’ll do:

  • Enjoy a warm welcome with tea or coffee.

  • Learn traditional dough-kneading techniques.

  • Shape and prepare bread for baking.

  • Create and enjoy appetizers like local cheese, veggie pies, and xygalo.

  • Bake bread in a traditional oven.

  • Share a Cretan meal with lamb or vegetable-based mains and local wine or raki.

  • End with a dessert of local cheese pie drizzled with honey.

This experience is more than a meal, it’s a celebration of Cretan hospitality and flavors, perfect for anyone eager to learn, taste, and create unforgettable memories.
