Moudros: a celebration of wheat at sunset
Europe, Greece, Aegean, Limnos, Moudros, wheat field, sunset (uncut)
As I said before, Limnos has a rich agriculture and this means amongst many other things that it has many relatively small scale wheat fields with a rich set of local varieties. And the bakers of the island certainly know how to use it We specially loved a light brown square and flat loaf that the Moudros baker called ‘traditional’ and tasted like rye – sourdough (in Dutch: rogge zuurdesem) bread, although the taste and the consistency/texture was much lighter (and not chewy) than you would expect of that kind of bread – delightful.
Shot from a dirt road near our holiday rental apartment in the outskirts of Moudros. A small part of the gulf of Moudros is in the background.
