Trahana Sweet Vlaha 500g

Product of Greece

Tiny hard dry pasta with a coarse, uneven nugget-like texture used in traditional soups, porridges, savory pies, stews and more!

Sweet Trahana is a fermented dough pasta made with Durum wheat semolina, milk, butter and salt. Trahana is typically cooked like pasta: boiled in water, veggie, chicken or beef stock and classically served as a porridge or in a thick winter soup known as “Trahanosoupa,” with butter, sautéed onions, fresh lemon juice and tangy Feta. This special pasta can also be used in traditional Greek stuffed peppers filled with sautéed onion, garlic, grated zucchini and eggplant, tomatoes, fresh basil and topped with Feta or as a binder for meatballs bathed in tomato sauce. Each region of Greece has its own special uses for this nutritious and delicious grain: from soups to stews and casseroles to meat, game or snail-filled pies! Vhala Sweet Trahana also makes a delicious warm morning cereal, topped with fresh berries, honey and Greek yogurt.
