The Greek way (Outrageously Delicious Greek Garlic Dipping Sauce).

No Greek mezze spread would be complete without "Skordalia". This hearty and rich Greek garlic dip will make your taste buds sing. It’ll bring any boring meal to life with just one bite I promise you.

Skordalia takes its name from the Greek word for garlic – skordo, hence skordaliai. Yes, it’s heavy on the garlic. You can of course ease back on the garlic if you wish. Traditionally Skordalia is served alongside a simple cooked beetroot salad with the leaves blanched and served as a base for the dish, dressed with olive oil and a little vinegar.

Vegan Skordalia with Roasted Beetroots

[lokkie83]

It's been one week since I came back from Greece and honestly i should have stayed there, because in these last days back home only shitty things have happened to me, included my work almost going to hell and the f*cking covid i'm suffering right now -_-

So at least i thought i could share my pics from there now that i have time to fix them. I started with the foodp0rn because it was so great :D

So here you have gyros (with fries inside, yes xD), dakos (with olive paste instead of olives), kolokithokeftedes (and i'm not a fan of zucchini!), kormós (or mosaiko, very similar to tinginys!), souvlaki (out of the pita in this case), grilled sardines (from a ψαροταβερνα in Pireas), skordaliá (it's like mashed potatoes with alioli sauce but much better than it sounds), horta (i would love to have this here), homemade spanakopita and homemade fasolakia too (my bf's mom wanted to feed us non stop xD), and last but not least saganaki (with formaella cheese we got in Αραχοβα).

Missing here the delicious mousaka also homemade, the koulouri that i liked so much or the kaimaki ice cream, because apparently i love mastiha :D

Skordalia – a fantastic alternative to hummus

If ever there was a dip to give hummus a run for it money, skordalia is it. A Greek-style dish of mashed and whipped potato spiked with garlic and lemon, and made voluminous with olive oil. My children have a seemingly insatiable appetite for the "creamy smooth garlicky-ness" of hummus, and were keen to road test an alternative. My decision was made easy when I discovered my local greengrocer brimming with cyprus potatoes. Bright with the distinctive red soil still clinging to their skins, these are a fantastic variety of spuds and I look forward to them coming into season. They're earthy in flavour, pale and fluffy when cooked – they make terrific mashed potato.

With creamy smooth and garlicky top of my gastronomic checklist, my skordalia ticked all the boxes. Served at room temperature, this pale whippy dip was demolished by all three daughters. A respite from hummus, but for how long?

Thrilled to announce that this parsnip skordalia is the host of the Oscars tonig… Thrilled to announce that this parsnip skordalia is the host of the Oscars tonight! It's like the Greek classic—but swaps out potatoes for parsnips. There's darum feta, hazelnuts, chiles, and garlic. We love it a lot.
