Dean Giannakis: The Greek Donut Master
Search for:
Greek donuts, or loukoumades, are bite-sized, fluffy, sweet, honey balls of dough, deep-fried to golden, crispy perfection on the outside; and fluffy and airy on the inside.
For Dean Giannakis, the quest to create the perfect loukoumas began over seven years ago whilst holidaying on the Greek island of Kefalonia, from where his family originates, during the local annual feasts of Saint Gerasimos, the patron saint of the island.
It was then that Dean developed a taste for the island’s incredible culinary delights, particularly its traditional sweet balls of goodness (aka loukoumades).
