Ravani

in #food5 years ago

Ravani is a delicious syrupy traditional Greek dessert, with an amazing texture, flavor and smell!This is an old family (mouthwatering)recipe, that my dad used to make in summer.
I really love this dreamy sweet semolina cake, called ravani or revani.I made it before two days, in my name day and all the pieces gone at the same day!It is fluffy, moist, light, with a delicate aroma and suits perfect with ice cream!

Ουαου το αγαπημένο μου και φαίνεται τέλειο...

Σε ευχαριστώ πολύ!😊
Φαίνεται το "ταπεινό" ραβανί είναι αγαπημένο πολλών!Ναι, έγινε πολύ πετυχημένο!Ένα ολόκληρο ταψί και εξαφανίστηκε σε δυο μέρες!

Δύο μέρες μου φαίνονται υπερβολικά πολλές...Σε δύο ώρες μάλλον εγώ θα το είχα εξαφανίσει... Όσο για ταπεινό τόσο όσο η υπέροχη βασιλική του γεύση... Χαίρομαι που υπάρχουν ακόμα κάποιοι που ξέρουν να φτιάχνουν παραδοσιακά αγαπημένα γλυκά... Οπότε εμείς ευχαριστούμε εσένα... Κράτα και για εμάς την άλλη φορά...

Χαχαχα!!Μάλλον έχεις δίκιο!!Και εμείς έτσι κάνουμε!Απλά αυτήν την φορά είπαμε να κρατηθούμε λίγο παραπάνω!
Και χαίρομαι για τα όμορφά σου λόγια!Σε ευχαριστώ!
Και βέβαια θα σας κρατήσω!😊
