00:03,
00:30 Hi, I'm Christos from El Greco Restaurant.
00:32 And I am-- my name is Vangelis.
00:34 I'm the chef of El Greco.
00:37 So today, we try to explain how we can make home
00:44 the Greek--
00:47 Pudding.
00:48 Pudding, the Greek Christmas pudding.
00:52 Melomakarona has inside orange juice, orange zest, flour,
01:01 baking powder-- we put in the baking powder
01:03 inside the orange juice.
01:05 For that reason, it's more fluffy.
01:08 Honey, cinnamon, cloves, and that's it.
01:15 We make something like a bread.
01:18 We're doing it small balls.
01:22 We cook in 180, 15 minutes.
01:26 And after, we take them out.
01:28 We have ready one syrup, cold one, with honey, sugar,
01:34 cinnamon, and pieces of orange inside.
01:39 We baptize the ready sweet-- the hot ready sweet.
01:43 That one is take all the flavor from the syrup.
01:47 But in the end, we're sprinkling with walnuts.
01:51 Traditionally in Greece, the mother of the house
01:54 makes this one because it's put in all the love.
02:00 For that reason, it's special.
02:05 And it's more nice.
02:08 Yeah, it's really bad that the video,
02:11 it don't take the smell of all that ingredient
02:15 because all my memories from young one, it's the house.
02:21 Those days, it smell cinnamon, orange, smell.
02:26 It's amazing.
02:28 Nice touch.
02:29 And for that reason, all those days, it's full of love.
02:33 It's full of happiness.
02:36 And make the people laughing.
02:39 So for today, we try to explain our Greek pudding
02:49 for Christmas.
02:51 And so we say to everybody, welcome to the El Greco.
02:54 They have the nice atmosphere, the Greek--
02:58 Greek--
