 Historical Background:

 A third generation recipe

“I remember being at the family farm in August after the feast day of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. My grandmother Eleni was a very good cook. She lit the fire, placed the trivet and put a big skillet on it. I still remember how delicious the kagianas was. Naturally, I inherited my love of food and cooking from my grandmother Eleni.
