Revithia

About the dish

This thick and nutritious chickpea soup is a Greek classic that is enjoyed throughout the country, but is traditionally associated with the island of Sifnos, where it comes in a form of a thick, oven-cooked stew. Revithia varies in consistency and additional ingredients, but it is often enriched with lemon and olive oil that give the dish its specific, tangy flavor. It is usually enjoyed warm, served drizzled with olive oil, and accompanied by bread.
