Dakos
Dakos are a Cretan rusk topped with grated or rubbed ripe tomato, olive oil, and oregano. They taste bright and savory, with the oil and tomato soaking just enough into the crisp bread to soften it slightly without making it soggy. They're eaten as a snack or light meal, often mid-morning alongside coffee. #greek #mediterranean #tomato #snack #vegetarian #breakfast
