Hello! I’ve been a lurker on your site for some months now, but this post made me come out of the shadows. I’m making my way to Greece next year and now you’ve whet my appetite, in more ways than one! Thank you for all your food tales. I gobble them up with gusto. :)

Good morning Market Man!=)

All I could say was “aaaaahhhhhhhh!” while reading your description of the eggplant salad. I can taste it in my mouth even by just reading.=)

Keep the posts on Greek food coming. I would not mind salavating, as I am always educated by your posts.

Again, the post MM, really makes me hungry, thanks!!! The eggplant dish seems easy to make, I’ll try to make my version based on the ingredients you suggested.

the roasted eggplant in your picture looks so delicious! i’ve planted a lot of eggplants in my garden. they’re loaded with flowers and i am hoping to harvest by the end of july. nothing like freshly picked eggplants fom the garden! aside from my usual eggplant recipes, i will try to cook the greek style roasted eggplants. thanks for giving me this idea, mm….

the Haloumi or Haloum cheese ( which is made from goat milk) will be excellent for fryimg or even grilling. Its available here under the Lemnos brand. Perhaps there might be another brand also available in Santis which i think might be imported from Cyprus. That lunch looked delish!

Talking about cheese……does anyone know where we can get rennet (in powder or tablet form) in manila?

I check with UPLB and they only have it in liquid form, but the couriers wont accept it for shipment.
