Bread with Greens

Ingredients:
1 kilo of flour (1/2 kilo of hard flour and ½ kilo of soft flour)
2 glasses of water (perhaps some more)
1 bunch of fresh onions
1 bunch of chopped dill
A little chopped parsley
2 sachets of baking powder (or 8 teaspoons)
1 tea spoon of bicarbonate soda

 

Instructions:
Mix all the ingredients well and spread them in a regular baking pan. Bake this mixture in a preheat oven at 200 degrees for about an hour. This recipe can also be made with raising flour, but in this case you shouldn’t use the baking powder and the bicarbonate soda.

We shape the mixture  as  a roll about 5 cm, we cover it with silver foil and put it in the fridge to freeze.

Eldress Galaktia of Crete: Prayer to our Lord

Eldress Galaktia of Crete: Prayer to our Lord

«Lord, grant me only humility and silence. I ask nothing else from You. Humility births love for all Your creations. I know that I am the greatest sinner, and no one else in the universe has embittered You as much as I, the despicable one, have. Help me to live with this every day. Do not let the devil fool me into thinking I am something when I am nothing. Grant me only to feel how sinner I am and help me to follow Your commandments to find mercy from Your countless love. Do not let me despair because of my sins but let me rejoice every day because You have mercy on me and will save me because You are compassionate. Do not let me have evil thoughts or judge my fellow human beings. I am to blame for them, and since I am the cause of their sin, I must only judge myself. Lord, Lord, do not deprive me of the river of Your divine mercy. Amen!».
