🇬🇷 Greece recipe
Gemista
Gemista, meaning 'stuffed ones,' are hollowed-out tomatoes and peppers filled with a fragrant mixture of rice, fresh herbs, pine nuts, and currants, then baked slowly in the oven until the vegetables are caramelized and the rice is fluffy and infused with their juices. It is the taste of a Greek summer.
