Cooking
Perhaps the most traditional spice of Greek cuisine with many uses mainly in meat and even in salads such as our famous choriatiki.
Use to flavor olive oil with which we spread on the meat when it is to be baked
It also flavors cooking salts and we will see it on fried potato. Probably the most popular spice in the barbecue.
