How to make an authentic Greek dakos salad: The Cretan way

Early last August, I was lucky enough to visit Crete for about a month. During my visit, I learned many new Mediterranean recipes, including the famous dakos salad. If you want to bring a little bit of Crete in your dining room, follow this authentic recipe.

Ingredients:

2 large barley rusks

150 g feta cheese or xinomizithra

1 small container of oregano

70 ml olive oil

1 medium ripe tomato, chopped

2 tablespoons of capers, rinsed and drained

Black pepper

Black olives

How to make:

Blend the oregano and olive oil in a blender. Add the tomato, capers, pepper, and pulse briefly so that the mixture does not become completely smooth. If you want, add pine nuts. Lightly sprinkle the rusks with a little water, spread the mixture over them, add olives, and serve.

Enjoy!!!
