Directions
Pasta With Yogurt and Caramelized Onions from Kassos,According to Diane Kochilas, author of The Glorious Foods of Greece, from whom I adapted this recipe, you can find this dish, Makarounes Tis Kassou, in many of the Dodecanese Islands. She says it’s one of the best and easiest dishes in Greek cooking–I don’t know if that’s true, but I know this is delicious–sweet onions, tart yogurt, lovely texture. The key is the right yogurt–use Greek yogurt if possible, sheep’s milk yogurt is the best, or use plain yogurt that you sit in a sieve and drain until it becomes lovely and thick. The only thing missing from this dish is a bit of color and I have found that adding some fresh Greek oregano or some fresh thyme does wonders both in terms of taste and presentation.,Awesome, DH loved this. used gluten-free noodles. Otherwise made as directed, perfecto.
