Organic Kritharaki (orzo) 400g

Organic Kritharaki, also known as Greek orzo, is artisanal pasta emblematic of Greek tables, carefully crafted by Trantou Zymarika, a small family business that has been perpetuating the art of pasta making for generations. Made from organic durum wheat semolina and pure water, this pasta are slowly shaped and dried at low temperatures to preserve their nutritional value and natural flavours.

Their elongated, rice-grain shape is characteristic of traditional Greek recipes such as youvetsi, stew made with meat (lamb, beef, or chicken) and tomatoes. Thanks to their soft texture and ability to absorb sauces, kritharaki is also ideal in summer salads, vegetarian gratins, comforting soups, or as an accompaniment to fish dishes.

The organic label guarantees a product free of preservatives and artificial flavourings, perfectly aligned with a healthy and authentic Mediterranean diet. Easy to prepare and enjoyed by all, kritharaki is a staple in any Greek pantry. You can pair it with herbs like oregano or thyme, or enhance it with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

At Poupadou, we value traditional Greek products, crafted with care by passionate artisans. This organic kritharaki is an invitation to rediscover the generosity, simplicity, and warmth of Greek cuisine, respecting the land and its traditions.

In plenty of salted, boiling water, add pasta stirring occasionally. Boil it for 17-18 minutes, strain and serve.

May contain traces of egg, milk and celery
