Recipe of the Week; Lamb or Goat Kleftiko

Hello my curious archaeogastronomers!

Welcome to another recipe of the week on a Saturday!

I’m your hungry host Thom Ntinas, and this is The Delicious Legacy podcast!

Thanks for tuning in!

On today bonus episode I’m leaving you with another lamb recipe and a little bit of a story behind the naming of it; Kleftiko, perhaps one of the most famous Greek recipes abroad....

The name of the dish derives from klephts, who were a group of Greek brigands or militiamen during the period of Ottoman rule over Greece between the fourteenth and nineteenth centuries.

But how do you cook it? And did really thieves steal sheep and cooked them underground in the mountain hideouts?

Listen and find out!

Music by Miltos Boumis and Pavlos Kapralos

Enjoy!
