[@margathea7072]

Aww this was just fantastic. I have looked at dozens of recipes for these and while they were all good in their own way. You 2 beautiful ladies win hands down yay!
Why? because these biscuits had that most special ingredient of all ...LOVE.. anything made with love always tastes better. Also you said the name of them in Greek an that to me is important. Efharisto poli... Keep up the good work yiayia you are bloody awesome!

[@sandysmom100]

My mom made these for years. She's to tierd now. I'm also yia yia Maria.

[@fleurlee6]

These are my favorite biscuits!! Thank you for the recipe. Is there an alternative I can use instead ouzo? Also do the almonds have to be raw or roasted?

[@nightingale1207]

This is the best sweet in the world.
I used to harass my Greek friend to prepare this for me. 🤣
Let’s see if this recipe is as good as my friend’s because I’m picky! Haha

[@ewab9991]

Lecker. Ich mache mit Brandy und Oliven Öl,.

[@cavadecor01]

Dearest Yiayia you remind me of my beautiful Greek neighbour who always gave us a plate of Christmas cookies, Easter Cookies, and everyday cookies for coffee! And by the way, what kind of Yiayia/nonna doesn't sream in the kitchen hahaha lmao:)

[@lea1004]

hi, guys, I love those biscuits, thank you for your recipe, I'll make here in 🇧🇷 Brazil, but , may I use cognac instead "ouzo" ?? ✌nice to meet you ladies

[@angman2090]

Try the vanilla paste it's much nicer than Imitation Vanilla.

[@olgacaltabiano7465]

My mother always used crushed almonds never slithered, they roll out better.

[@CaroleGilman]

Is cornflour also known as cornstarch?

[@seriouslyscrapping]

do you have to put ouzo? what does it do....can it be made without?

[@lucygreene6401]

Opa!!!!

[@Csanfer14]

Is Corn Flour what we call in The Americans Cornmeal?

[@lindacowles756]

G'day, hasanah Ahmad! I tried the Google translator from Greek into English for Yiayia Maria's reply, but had some difficulty in understanding how her words related to your question. I then Googled about what to use in lieu of ouzo and it said anise-flavored Italian soda syrup (Sambuca) can be used. Hope this helps.

[@graziadisei-8578]

Where’s the receipe

[@Helen-ud8fd]

Where is the recipe?

[@lillianpimenteliwasbornint6635]

What is ouzo

[@halwakka504]

A Greek alcohol that has an anise or licorice flavour, similar to sambuca.

[@SahMai]

That is not the original Kourabiethis.
