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!

Hello!

An archipelago of more than 7000 islands. Tribes with more than 200 native languages and a population of 112 million people.

Philippines is a rich ground to discover some amazing ingredients, some delicious food and ancient indigenous recipes!

On this episode I'm relatively quickly touching some of the rarest and fast disappearing native ingredients. The losses are due to industrial products being cheaper and imports of cheap ingredients but also an uncertain climate.

Here's the ones I'm touching on this episode:

• Alingo, Besaang, Buttog aka The Cordillera Native Black pig
• Darag Chicken of Panay Island
• Gumamela leaves
• Inartem Balayang (Pickled Wild Banana)
• Kaong vinegar
• Asin tibuok sa Albur unbroken salt
• Budbud or Bamboo Salt
• Tultul Artisanal Sea Salt

How the unbroken salt is made:
