Greek Chocolate Salami | Akis Petretzikis

[@Cristina97]

Children in Romania love this, my mom used to have it when she was little, my grandma too. I can never have enough! Didn't realise its Greek, its so embedded in our culture I just thought its romanian haha. Love Greek food

[@gabrielagheorghiu5331]

I am Romanian too and I grew up with biscuit salami. I don't think it's fair to say that you are embossed because you actually found out it's a Greek recipe. Wrong! This recipe is very popular in Greece, Turkey, Uruguay, Portugal, Italy, Poland, and a few other countries ... Chocolate salami is an Italian and Portuguese dessert made from cocoa, broken biscuits, butter, and sometimes alcohol such as port wine or rum. The dessert became popular across Europe and elsewhere. In Romania, it may have originated during the 1970s or 1980s in the communist era, possibly as a result of food shortages.

[@daroand9887]

My mum used to make this when I was a kid and I always thought it was a Portuguese recipe lmao..but reading the comments and watching this vid, seems like this exists pretty much everywhere!

[@andredejesus1011]

Sameeee 😂

He can do whatever he wants💋

[@RuthannFriesen]

I am american, but my romanian friends want to give this to me to take to my family.Thanksgiving dinner so I watched your video to see how they make it.And what the ingredients are, so I know what i'm taking.Thank you, I enjoyed it very entertaining.

OMG. This is Mozaik Pasta in Turkish. I love this similarities between our cultures. Best wishes from Turkey. 💕

[@yaseminaksoy1680]

Evet😋

[@sebastianstoica578]

In Romania we call it biscuit salami. Usually make it with turkish delight, that we call "rahat".

[@karol190PL]

We made similar thing in Poland. We call it Salami (when it is shaped like in Akis video) oraz Blok (when it is rectangular shape)

[@joeyk5]

I’m Australian we say biscuits too. This recipe seems really good for this time of year

[@Eva_R966]

Latvians make this exact same thing and call it a sweet sausage (saldā desa)! So fun to see the overlap in recipes that are enjoyed around the world

[@lukasmatijosius6597]

And Lithuanian make the same and call it lazy cake 🤓🤓 hey Braliukas!

[@alexandravictoria2678]

My favourite!! In Cyprus we call it Doukissa yum

[@Noor-kp1yb]

This looks delicious.Will make with my children👌

[@JohnnyFreedom89]

Ha, we make almost the same thing in the Czech Republic for Christmas, except that we add a few more things into the mixture - candied fruit, jelly and raisins. And we cover it in shredded coconut. And it's sooo good!

[@SpartanLeonidas1821]

That sounds Amazing! 😋

[@natlogue]

Bravo Akis! San tis manas mou♡

[@CountYourAssets]

Well. Looks like I will be making this to take to work this week! Thank You @akis_petretzikis for Always giving us wonderful recipes. As a non Greek, and from Yemeni background, our food is very different to yours. But whenever I make your recipes, the whole family love it. Especially me. I try to make a lot of mediterranean food now, as I think in general, it is the most healthiest. God bless you x

[@plovdivgirl8378]

I made this recipe and my family liked it very much. I prepare it every week🌞❤️ Thanks 😊

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

Well done Chef! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work... Much love from Switzerland

[@vmiragias]

I thought this was an Italian thing but regardless, it's tasty! Thanks Aki! You're the best!

[@Travelmammal]

Katapliktiko Aki. Well done.

[@ardemisaguirre8088]

In france too we have our salami , we call it saucisson 😋😋🥰

[@glassestarzan8702]

This is Greek? I never knew. My mother's family is Iraqi and my Aunt makes this. It is the best.

[@BeardGainz]

Its not :D They like to name things "Greek"

[@ninadiamant8937]

@@BeardGainz It doesn't say "invented by Greeks". It's Greek because we've been eating this for a long time. Maybe it's Italian, maybe it's Syrian, maybe it's Egyptian.

[@mariamucsi2482]

We also have this dessert in Hungary.

[@kathy8032]

In Russia too 🙉

[@blase6330]

@@BeardGainz when he says greek chocolate salami it doesn't mean that it's greek origin.. but it's a greek version of it.. it's not a historical channel but a cooking channel so calm down

[@elifnurozel7873]

This is the first dessert I remember that i've ever had, when i was 4. my father bought this for me from a cakeshop after a medical examination.🥺🙂 thank you for the recipe 🙏😊

[@kellymcallister2376]

Looks very yummy 😊

[@dhivyapriya8073]

Salami hearing for first time yet it's lovely... 😁super Akis❤

[@573f]

omg i remember eating this as a kid but for some reason i couldn't find it in store anymore. I started googling "salami biscuit" recipies and at the time other recipies came up that had me melt the chocolate with cream but this recipe seems so much easier. Im really eager to try it because in my memory the salami biscuit i had as a kid was on the softer side while all the recipies I have tried in the past has a rather hard texture.

[@penny5346]

marvellous Akis! recipe of happiness!

[@prossi5099]

EASY, fabulous and flavorful! Love this recipe thank you! I may never say 'biscuits' the same way again! ♪♫•*•.♥

[@dee1307]

Well done Akis 😙 looks fun to make!

[@mashalejalle]

Thank you Akis!! As usual very good!!

[@Sergedanilow]

In Germany, there is a similar recipe that is not rolled, but filled into a rectangular loaf pan. It's called "Kalter Hund" (cold dog).

[@ShtukyCooky]

Magic recipe, I tried it on my channel!

[@carolz7382]

So delicious❤️❤️❤️

[@f9151]

Looks great!

[@shanzaayub5824]

Omg I make the same thing minus few ingredients. I must say we do have similarly between our cuisine.

[@kiriap1]

My daughter in law made this, she is Italian and made her version, I had no idea that we Greeks had our own version too, woo nice, I will make this one and declare its the Greek version lol my daughter in law wont mind at all, hers was very nice, and so will mine be, lol right?

[@eterna4]

Here's me imagining someone saying, "I'll take your moose." Ah, the ways of the world -- universal flirting. Couple that with universal comfort food, and you have a language which travels the globe.

[@freddyjensen5996]

At some point I think I heard the calories attacking! I am definitely making this one of the next days. I think some chopped abricots soaked in rum will add some acidity.

[@kaloyangorunski8767]

Somehow I am 100% sure that Akis used extra Greek Metaxa to make the salami.

[@angrypotato_fz]

Looks like black pudding :D Use powder sugar before slicing it to give it nice salami "mouldy" skin :)

[@BeeGeePi]

Why not use Metaxa?

I feel like it will be great with Kir, Schnapps or creme de menthe as the alcohol

[@ksdina2818]

Greek original recipe uses brandy 🤗

[@properjammy]

Everyone would like some Salami ;) ;) haha

[@EkaArief]

Hello i had this idea of maybe you shud make a milk bath cake its sooo good trust me my mom made it before hope you try it out im new to your channel btw!!!

[@haouman17]

hi,,i just wondering what should i used instead of brandy in this recipe ,, and sometimes u r asking us to put white or red wine on meat but as Muslims we cant use those things so can u tell us a hint for what to used instead ,,and thx alot for ur great vidoes

[@chloe_the_cat2831]

I make a similar recipe without alcohol. I just moisten the biscuits with some milk and sometimes add some sour cherry syrup/juice from canned sour cherries. (And then I also add the sour cherries in the mixture because they go perfectly with the chocolate.^_^)

[@haouman17]

@@chloe_the_cat2831 thx alot for the hint i gonna try that

[@TommySpanos]

The wine in "meat" recipes is used to deglaze the pan and bring some of that flavor into the cooked product. You can substitute it with grape or pomegranate juice and in some cases even vinegar.

[@haouman17]

@@TommySpanos thx alot

[@akispetretzikisen]

You can omit it.

[@tanbir11]

looks great, any ideas what i could replace the biscuits with, i would prefer somethin healthier. I was thinking oatmeal but maybe it lacks substance.

[@mjrussell414]

Oh boy. Just enjoy it in moderation as they say. I’m all for healthy options but sometimes you just have to go with the original.

[@LiLi-xx4yd]

That's how we pronounce biscuits too. Biskwets, we get corrected all the time.

actually,if you read the comments you'll find out that many countries follow the same recipe.Portuguese,Iraqi,Turkish,Italian etc.In Greece we call it kormos or salami or mosaiko (my mom always called it kormos btw) and in Cyprus it's called Doukissa,so not even the name is the same ^-^

[@قناةملكالروح]

[@AdonisAngeloLexiYanulis]

Just found this channel, trying to satiate my Greek Nostalgia (I haven’t eaten this desert, I grew up having regularly, in over 11 years!, my mom would make this at home frequently!) I dunno, but something about it being called chocolate “SALAMI” by a fellow Greek here...feels so wrong...almost offensive, haha...just no! LOL Please Akis agori mou! It’s a KORMOS at best!!! Which means “TREE TRUNK” as if you cut up a tree and how it looks on the inside with the awesome shapes of a tree trunk and it’s spots/biscuits Or a MOSAIC/Μοσαικος, at the very least!!! Ante Mpravo! Hahaha Still appreciate the making of this recipe and the charming personality of the host/Akis! I subscribed! But I gotta say...the chocolate sauce, looks WAY TOO DARK in my humble opinion! When the end result is that dark and in that shape, AND called Salami, it is not that appetizing!!!

Awesome recipe, I'll try it, but I'll stick with the regular sugar. Regular sugar dissolves very easily, powder sugar doesn't dissolve, you can feel the granulates in your mouth.

[@Elizabeth-zq7nc]

So powder sugar obviously dissolved easier

Sorry Akis: that is Portuguese salami. 😘😜❤️🇵🇹 we use Port wine of course.
