Kourou dough is a specially designed dough with a very rich taste that when being baked does not swell but becomes crispy like a cookie.
Koulouri are a trademark of every bakery… Although they do not have a registered designation of origin, their history dates back to the time of the Byzantine Empire and they appeared mainly in Constantinople and Thessaloniki.
The word koulouri derives from the Byzantine word “kollikion” which refers to many Byzantine scripts and means round bread.
