Recently, we wrote about xinochondros, or a specific Cretan product made from wheat grains and sour milk. Prepared and properly dried in the sun can be stored for many months without losing quality. It is above all a great addition to various types of soups, sauces, goulash etc. dishes.
Today we will present the first method of using xinochondros in a very simple and surprisingly tasty tomato soup. At the outset, it is worth emphasizing that it is a little labor-and time-consuming dish. What's more, the list of ingredients is really short and simple at the same time. In addition to grated tomatoes and xinochondros, only water, olive oil and some salt and pepper will be needed to make this soup.
Xinochondros plays one of the main roles in this dish, so this soup can not be prepared without this ingredient. So if you are intrigued by this recipe, there is nothing else but to buy a packet of xinochonrdos during your holidays in Crete. They are available in a large part of large grocery stores. This way you will be able to prepare your own Cretan tomatoes after returning to Poland.

Of course, this is not a traditional Greek dish, addition of the recently fashionable mastic makes this dish a part of the canon of contemporary Greek cuisine. Of course, to prepare them, it is necessary to have several crystals of this resin, because without this addition it will be a simple tomato sauce.
