Gigandes - one of my top favourite dishes! Barely a meal on a Greek holiday goes by without it! When I lived in Greece, the herb the villagers used was fresh dill, not rigani, which gives it a zestiness that goes well with feta.

I must make my next batch with dill!

Another yummy-sounding dish to add to my list. I’ll be making the beans from scratch, probably my favorite giant Royal Corona beans from our famed California bean purveyor, Rancho Gordo. Thanks, Rachel! You always make me hungry! 😀

Does it help I'm actually quite jealous of those Rancho Gordo beans? I keep wishing I could get those here!! Enjoy these beans, and let me know it goes with cooked dried ones!

I wish I could send you some, Rachel! They’re rally quite remarkable beans. It will be fun to try using them in this dish! I’ll let you know how it turns out.
