Zymaropita – original Greek zucchini savory pie

Scorrere verso il basso

Today’s recipe is a special summer pie that is Zymaropitaoriginal Greek zucchini savory pie.

The life of a food bloggers, like all the jobs, has many pros and cons but one of the most positive things is being able to know bloggers and foodies from all over the world. As soon as I saw the original greek recipe for Zymaropita made a Greek/Italian blogger Apriti Sesamo I know I have to make it.

This traditional savory pie with zucchini and feta is truly yummy and I have not changed the original recipe (maybe next time I’ll put a tablespoon less oil). Delicious still hot, slightly crunchy on top and with a strong taste of Greek cheese and delicate onion aftertaste. In the original it is called Bagina and I suggest you go to read the original recipe where in a very funny way tha author explains why using the Bagina name together with big, long zucchini saunds too dirty for her. 😀
