Of course I didn't have real mizithra here in Finland but a mix of cream cheese, Lefkotiri and curd (!?) and it was very thick and sticky. I used a spoon and a spatula. I wonder if you have some miracle tool for this purpose there in Margaritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16488915380952308653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3011565341528115635.post-64317495523315092282009-11-07T08:48:42.651+02:002009-11-07T08:48:42.651+02:00Hi, thanks for the great recipe for boureki.
