Περιγραφή
A traditional product in a gourmet version – full of color, flavor, and the aromas of Greece
✨ Description
Rooster rolls are a tribute to Greek culinary tradition, inspired by old villages where rooster held a place of honor at Sunday meals. Here, however, they are presented in a modern, handmade gourmet version, with an explosive combination of flavors.
At their heart is choice rooster fillet, aromatic and rich, carefully selected for its texture and robust flavor. The filling consists of:
-
Florina pepper, sweet and aromatic,
-
Tyrnavos PDO kasseri cheese, soft and slightly spicy,
-
A touch of mustard & herbs for extra depth.
The roll is finished with an “embrace” of thin slices of pork belly, adding a crispy exterior and extra intensity of flavor.
A roll that impresses with its appearance, enchants with its flavor, and stands out for its quality.
