Hi Eli,
I have made this two times. It’s absolutely delicious. It is well worth the effort.

I would note that I wouldn’t call this recipe easy. It’s not difficult, but there are many steps. Time and patience is required for this recipe.

I will have to try other recipes. I really enjoy Greek Food and there aren’t any good Greek Restaurants in the area where I live.

I made this recipe and it was delicious. I have two minor suggestions to make to the recipe Ingredients section. I would add the word “divided” after “220g sugar (7.5 oz.)” and add “Water of sprinkling”, perhaps under the BASE INGREDIENTS section.

Although I followed the recipe I can see how the addition of rose or orange blossom water would add another dimension to the taste.

In reply to Yianni. It's 40-45% or so fat content. For the US you can use heavy cream.

Whats double cream in ur perspective? Because I’ve done this recipe twice and both times have come out not that creamy forcing me to add more milk and I think it’s got to do with the cream

I live in crete and I use your site several times a week. I always want to thank you but I have 2 small children so I rarely have time! I’m making this recipe for the second time, the first time was so great and this one is in the oven and looks just as good so far.

We have a goat and she makes a lot of milk, so when we have a surplus I’ve been told this is the go to recipe! I’ll just have to get someone in the village to try my galaktoboureko and check it’s up to scratch!

Thank you for this recipe and all the others, I have learned so much. Charlotte x x x
