Making bread in a traditional wood-burning oven

How is the traditional Cretan bread made?
Come and learn the secrets with us!

Excursion’s
meeting point is set at Glymata of Agios Nikolaos at 8:30 a.m.

We
will initially be transported to the
wood-burning oven area, we will light the fire together and after that we will
enjoy a traditional Cretan breakfast, which includes beverages (coffee, orange
juice, tea with Cretan herbs) and traditional bread with cheese.

We
will then make the dough for the bread, knead the dough, shape the bread loaves
and while the dough is resting, we will try some traditional Cretan snacks
(rusks nuts, olives, seasonal vegetables )accompanied by raki, the traditional
Cretan drink.

After
lowering the oven temperature, we will place the bread in and while it is
baking, we will prepare our lunch, which is gastronomically based on the Cretan
diet.

Finally,
we will take the bread out of the oven and enjoy the delicacies we have
prepared, accompanied by fresh, fragnant bread and local red wine.

When
it’s time to leave, you will receive a fresh loaf of bread as a souvenir of
your whole experience.
