I first encountered these delicious Lenten pastries at a sweet shop in the northern Greek city of Komotini. It's not by accident that Greeks eat so much tahini during Lent, in savory and sweet dishes. Tahini, or sesame paste, is extraordinarily nutritious. It's an excellent source of calcium and, so, a great replacement for cheese and other dairy products. To find the Greek olive oil and Greek honey you'll need for this recipe, go to my online store
