Graviera of Crete: a high quality cheese with a slightly sweet flavour. It is made with sheep’s unpasteurized milk or mixtures with small quantities of goat’s milk. It is shaped in round pieces of 3-25 kilos, it has natural skin and, depending on the production area, its mass is full of smaller or bigger round holes. It is eaten, after a 6 – 10 months ripening, at table, as a snack with a piece of bread or a paximadi, in pies, as saganaki, with fruits (especially with fresh figs and grapes), with dried figs and nuts, sprinkled with a fine quality honey.
