Full recipe instructions for preparing Dakos

🔥 Prep

  • Take the 2 pcs Barley Rusk and set them aside on a clean surface.

🔥 Cook

  • 1. Place the 2 barley rusks on a plate.
  • 2. Drizzle 1 tbsp of olive oil over each rusk (total 2 tbsp).
  • 3. Allow the rusks to sit for 2 minutes at room temperature to absorb the oil.

  • 5. Evenly distribute the diced tomatoes over the softened rusks.
  • 6. Crumble the 50 g feta cheese over the tomato layer.
  • 7. Sprinkle 1 tsp of oregano evenly across the dish.
  • 8. Drizzle any remaining olive oil over the top.
  • 9. Let the assembled dakos rest for 1 minute at room temperature before serving.

🔥 Serve

  • Present the dakos on a wide, shallow platter for easy sharing.
  • Garnish with a few whole oregano sprigs for aroma.
  • Pair with kalamata olives and a glass of crisp Assyrtiko or other Greek white wine.
  • Serve immediately while the rusks are slightly softened but still retain a pleasant crunch.
