If you knead to now - it's the best!!!

Forgive the play on words, but out of a small almost run-down shack in the small town of Georgioupolis, to the west of the island, comes some of the most amazing bread you can imagine.
It's made in the very traditional way, they only make two shapes (round and oblong) as well as paximadi, the hard bread, but they turn out hundreds of loaves daily from the traditional ovens, and people come from miles around to collect. It seems no matter what time of day you enter this dark building, there is always the tantalising smell of fresh bread, it's always laid out on large tables, and is always seems, at least to us, that it has just come out of the ovens. Even when you get it wrapped, they tear up the paper flour sacks before putting it, if you ask, into a plastic bag.
The paximadi are also special, although cooked twice, it is the white bread sliced. We call it Yia Yia bread or grandmothers!!  It is dense, has a hard crust, but will keep fresh for a week.We were in that area at the weekend, and had to purchase some of these two kilo loaves for friends, who were ecstatic that we got this for their family.
