Mezze is deeply rooted in Greek cuisine. It can be as humble as pan-searing some loukanika and pouring an ouzo, or a grand banquet of a variety of small, regional dishes to be shared in communal spirit. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Bringing the world of Greek charcuterie to Melbourne has been an important journey for me to honour my heritage and my work.\u00a0 \u00a0Every recipe for Loukaniko tells a story, with each link a testament to the time-honoured techniques whispered through generations. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

From the mainland to the islands, you will discover that loukanika are more than just a recipe: they\u2019re a reflection of local spirit and local ingredients. My family originates from the beautiful island of Crete.\u00a0 <\/span>Here, mountainous herbs grow wild and are used to flavour the sausages which are smoked in a very unique method alongside smouldering coals for preservation.<\/p>\r\n

Today I will share how to prepare and serve loukanika in the simplest way.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n
