Author Notes
At the times of the Ottoman Empire, a “bouyiourdi” was the written order of an officeholder. We don’t know how or why, but in contemporary Greek the world is synonymous of one of the most popular mezzes of Thessaloniki.
After all the two most important ingredients of this recipe, the boukovo chili flakes and the spicy peppers are widely produced (and consumed) across Northern Greece. —Evangelia
