The traditional Greek dinner table demands Greek recipes! And the best way of enjoying a meal made with Greek olive oil is of course a Cretan barley rusk. Made with the purest Cretan ingredients, they contain 80% barley, are baked in a wood-burning oven, and are low in fat and rich in fibre. Enjoy them with any kind of food at a family meal, soaked for a little in some water to soften them, instead of bread. A unique taste without cholesterol!

The Cretan Rusk is recognized by the European Union (PGI – Protected Geographical Indication) gaining widespread popularity due to the natural ingredients used in its production and also due to its high nutritional value. Paximadi is a Cretan / Greek doubly baked bread taken from an old time traditional recipe. Its authentic taste is quickly recognized when eating it plain or when it is accompanied by appetizers. This exceptional, scrumptious product is made from wheat, barley or rye. It may be consumed as is or by slightly moistening it in water or in oil. The Cretan Rusk can be stored in a cool dry place for an extended period of time without losing its nutritional value.
Cretan Rusk contains high sources of vitamin B, antioxidants, magnesium, and phosphorus. Its natural fibers contribute to good bowel movement. Back in history, Cretans had discovered a way to preserve bread for long periods of time given the fact that it was virtually impossible for them to knead and to bake daily. Thus they discovered that if after baking they left it out to dry, something which helped lose its humidity yet which still left the paximadi intact without it losing its precious vitamins and nutrients, it could be conserved for long periods of time. Recommended for all those who wish to follow a balanced diet and who are health conscious.
