Eptazimo is a traditional bread with a unique preparation method, where the dough is kneaded seven times (the name "eptazimo" comes from the Greek word "epta" - seven) before baking. What also sets eptazimo apart from other breads is that it is leavened without yeast. Instead, it relies on a natural fermentation process od chickpeas to create a leavening effect. The dough is often flavored with aromatic ingredients such as anise and ouzo, giving it a distinctive, slightly sweet, and fragrant taste. Eptazimo is known for its dense texture and is considered a rare, ancient bread recipe that has its roots in Byzantine culinary traditions.
