Description

A traditional Cretan speciality

Miterra’s barley rusks on a roll are inspired by an emblematic product of Cretan cuisine: paximadia. Indeed, this rolled format is historically used in Greece for its practicality and its ability to accompany many dishes. Made from barley, they reflect know-how handed down for generations. Thanks to a double baking process, they develop a dry, crispy texture. This method guarantees a long, natural shelf life.

A crunchy texture and a traditional format

From the very first bite, biscottes reveal a firm, crunchy texture. However, their roll format brings a different experience to slices. In fact, their denser shape makes them easier to hold, even after ingredients have been added. What’ s more, they absorb flavors perfectly, while retaining their crunchiness. This makes them particularly suitable for generous, gourmet preparations.

An emblematic use in Greek cuisine

Miterra Barley Rusk Rolls are a natural addition to Mediterranean cuisine. For example, they are ideal for making traditional dakos. All you need to do is moisten them slightly, then add tomatoes, cheese and olive oil. The result is a simple, quick and effective recipe. What’s more, their format is perfect for spreads, mezzés or complete meals.

A simple, natural composition

Rusk has a short, easy-to-read base. Basically, they contain barley flour, water and salt. In this way, the recipe remains true to tradition, with no superfluous additions.

600 g format ideal for regular use

The 600 g roll format is ideal for frequent consumption. They are ideal for preparing several meals or for sharing. What’s more, their robust shape makes them suitable for a wide range of uses, from cooking to simple tasting.

A production faithful to Greek heritage

Produced by Minoan Gaiathese rusks are part of an initiative to promote traditional Greek products. They reflect a simple, natural diet rooted in the Mediterranean way of life.
