This brings back some wonderful childhood memories of family dinners and the mouth watering smells wafting through the house. Thank you for “Thermomixing” the recipes to make it easier to recreate them for my family. Well done girls!!!
Sarah
I have made two items so far from the cook book. The traditional greek yogurt, so yummy and so easy. I was happy I could make it thicker than I usually buy it. I also made the rice pudding which was amazing and also very easy. I normally don’t like rice pudding so was very happy with the recipe. I’m looking forward to cooking all the other yummy recipes especially the cheeses and the souvlaki.
