Experience Crete: Cretan Cuisine – Elissos Travelling Philosophy

Описание: ✎ #Antikristo is a #traditional #technique of #cooking #meat on #Crete. A young #lamb is cut into four pieces, salted, then placed on big wooden skewers that are arranged around the fire in a circular formation, taking into consideration the direction of the wind, the intensity of the fire, and the distance between the fire and the meat.
This process lets the meat cook in its own fat and salt with the heat coming from the flames instead of coals. The name antikristo means across the fire, describing this unique technique. The meat is slowly cooked, sometimes up to 6 hours, and it develops different #flavors in the process.
In the past, antikristo was common in the villages of #Psiloritis mountain, but nowadays it can be found anywhere in Crete. Traditionally, it is prepared and cooked exclusively by men, most often #shepherds.
