Filo dough 500g

Filo or phyllo dough (Greek word meaning leaf) is widely used in Greek cuisine to also prepare typical and authentic savoury and sweet recipes!

It is the dough used for the preparation of spanakopita (spinach pie), tyropita or tiropita (feta cheese pie) or pastourmadopita (pastourma and kasseri cheese pie), but it is ideal for making the famous baklava with walnuts and other syrup desserts such as galaktoboureko (cream dessert) and portokalopita (orange pie) among others.

It is supple, thin and slightly elastic, so it requires delicate handling and cooking. It gets quite crispy once cooked.
