And I'm glad that you documented it and blogged about it even if you weren't totally happy with the results. It does look quite hard, and you got it rolled out super-thin.

What a small world we live in..<br /><br />Thank you for sharing the stories of your grandmothers pastry techniques. I love hearing stories like that :) I've seen ladies in Limnos making the rolled and coiled pastries. I would love to try that one day. And using a broom handle for a rolling pin - that is so cool.<br /><br />And thanks for the link on Mr Kontos. What an amazing man!
