I just saw this and I like Chef John and his recipes. I thought this is a great recipe and it reminded me a lot of my years in Greece. This is a real Greek recipe and tasted it, I am sure you will enjoy it. We need good news, we need that sunshine now. So why not think happy thoughts and for those of you who have been to Greece this will for sure bring memories.
