Hey Dimitra, thanks a lot for the recipe! I guess that was the best one I tried. The only problem is that I cannot find barley rusk here, I will bake myself then... I am Turkish and my husband is Greek, our cuisines are very very similar yet i always follow your recipes for him not to be homesick lol :) You help me a lot even without knowing it. Thanks for that.
Many kisses and hugs from Istanbul! :*

I just got my Barley Rusks from Amazon today. They were very expensive and made me think of substitutions, but in the end I went ahead and got them. I made this for dinner today (I forgot to add olives!!) and I liked it especially since I used a good Turkish olive oil. I wasn’t sure how I was going to eat it since the rusk was quite hard even though I'd dipped it in water a couple of times. I used my hands when it was time to taste it since I wasn’t sure what the rusk was going to be like but after assemblage it turned out to be quite moist. Will make again.

looks great. I'm from Macedonia, Θεσσαλονίκη
and here when we eat onions - we prefer to put them first in wine vinegar - before placing them over a Ντάκο or a Χωριάτικη

nice that a fellow Kritikia is doing this. like your cooking style generally. would like more cream recipes please. thanks:-)

[tomliordos]

In Corinthia we do something similar but the rusk is soaked in "bevada" (half =1/3 dry white wine to half= 2/3 water respectively.
Now I’m hungry.

I'm in Crete on holiday at the moment and we've been trying to do this ourselves ... Thanks for the tips to moisten rusks as we were breaking teeth lol... Very tasty

[mazzarouni]

That looks delicious. I would have liked to have seen Dimitra eat it as well, I want to see how easy it is to eat that hard rusk. Did the water and chopped tomatoes make it easier to eat?

[zoey]

I Like to soak the rusk in the grated tomatoes.

Hey Dimitra, kalhmera apo chicago. Does the paximadi soften up with the tomato/olive oil moisture ( i know i know dumb question LOL). I bet basil would be great on top what do you think?!?! actually reading through the comments i think you stated it's more of a moist bread but i am sure it keeps it's texture.

[maylien]

My nonna from Northern Italy - Genoa, made a similar salad with tomatoes and a Very Hard Galletta (break your teeth hard!) .

[noor-al-deenp]

I always thought paximadi was a dry roasted sourdough... unless what I've had is a different variation. This looks good though! :)
