My husband and I went to Greece for our honeymoon in September and his favorite breakfast of the trip was eggs scrambled with tomatoes. I made it for him as a surprise this morning and he said it tasted just as good as it did in Crete where he had it the first time. Your step by step guide (and instructions on how to grate tomatoes) were terrific. I also added some parsley and Greek oregano that we brought home with us. It was a great Sunday breakfast!

With reference to post on Strapatsatha being introduced to Thessaloniki's cuisine by the the Jews, I stick by it. I'm quite aware that tomatoes appeared in Greek cuisine long after Jews settled in Greece. However, the Sephardic dish called "uevos haminados" was brought with them (tomatoes absent). It's no great stretch of the imagination that Jews could have adapted the dish to evolve to include tomatoes. This theory has long been held in the area around Thessaloniki. I've said my 2 cents worth and I frankly could care less about debating the origins of the dish further. I will now go and make some "avga Kleftiko"! ;) Peter's last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/QJky/~3/352237476/gone-fishing.html" rel="nofollow">Gone Fishing</a> Folks, this discussion on the origins of this dish is way to involved and frankly it’s taking away from the the actual dish.
