2Samphire from the Dodecanese

In the Dodecanese, samphire (kritamo) is a cherished delicacy, foraged from rocky coastlines.  

This crunchy, salty green, often tossed in salads or served alongside fish, captures the essence of the Aegean’s wild, untamed nature. Samphire’s unique taste is a reminder of the islands’ connection to the sea, a thread that runs deep through their history and cuisine.
