Making Cretan Bread







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 some cretan meze &

This experience is more than a bread making with meze tasting or a walking tour, it’s a celebration of Cretan hospitality and flavors, perfect for anyone eager to learn, taste, and create unforgettable memories.
