皇冠体育app most interesting part of 鈥楾asting Wales鈥� online project was the Greek twist that our food bloggers gave to traditional Welsh recipes.
Here is what they said about their experience:
In general I love all British delicacies that are served with tea but never had the chance to taste this fruity bread before. As soon as I realised that most recipes of Bara Brith included a sugary orange peel, I immediately thought to replace it with the handmade Greek traditional bergamot marmalade, stored in my kitchen. 皇冠体育app result was super delicious! - Elenna is Cooking
Wales is the only place in Britain that I have not yet visited and this project was an excellent opportunity to get to know it, through its gastronomical tradition. What I never expected was how well Welsh pancakes matched with traditional Greek tastes such as mastic and tahini鈥� - Foodaki.gr
According to the classic Welsh Claw recipe, it should be served with classic welsh cheese, but I decided to combine the sweetness of this dish with the spicy taste of Kopanisti, one of the best of Greece鈥檚 local cheeses coming from the island of Mykonos! - FunkyCook
