Its known for the sausages, the lentils from Eglouvi (a small village in the mountains), \"DSCN9735\"<\/a>as well as honey from Athani. The embroidery is something special in Lefkada, as the “Karsaniki” stich is nowhere else used. Its origin is in the village of Karia. \u00a0 It is said that the pies are not so common in the town, while rizopita (rice pie) and macaronopita (pasta pie), made from eggs and milk, are well known and often made in the villages. They also add aromatic wild greens. \u00a0 \"local<\/a> Another famous product is the air- dried salami and the pork sausages. Their special mild aroma and the addition of garlic and whole peppercorns has made them being imported since decades. \u00a0 Other appreciable products are fish, liqueurs and soumada, a white, creamy refreshment, made from almonds. Because of the high quality of olive oil, the oil pie got famous. It is the traditional sweet of Lefkas. It is served in all family events and is available all year. \u00a0 It will be very interesting to understand the importance of local consumption and to learn more about them. Follow and join us to the next W(e) DID workshop, tomorrow on 18th of March at half past eight pm. \u00a0 Written by Elisabeth Weissitsch.<\/p>\n
