How To make Byzantine Dolmathes (Stuffed Grapeleaves)
Karen Mintzias 1 Jar grapeleaves (or fresh)
FILLING:
2 tb Oil
1 lb Ground beef or lamb
2 Onions; chopped
1 Garlic clove; pressed
2 c Water
1/2 c Tomato sauce
1 c Rice
2 tb Chopped mint
2 tb Chopped parsley
1/2 ts Salt
Pepper to taste 1/8 ts Cinnamon
1/2 c Currants
1/4 c Port wine (optional)
1/4 c Pine nuts or walnuts
2 c Water
1 Lemon (juice only)
SAUCE:
3 Eggs
2 Lemons (stained juice only)
1 c Hot broth
If using canned grape leaves, rinse off brine by floating leaves in a basin of cold water. Prepare fresh vine leaves by pouring a cup of boiling water over them in a bowl. Drain. Spread 5 or 6 leaves out at a time on a flat surface. Lay leaf stem side up. Snip off stem with kitchen shears. MAKE FILLING: Heat oil in large frying pan. Fry meat, onions and garlic on medium heat for 5 minutes, mixing it as it cooks. Add water and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Cover. Reduce heat to simmer and cook 10 minutes, until water is absorbed. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Put 1 teaspoon of filling near stem. Bring left side of leaf towards center, then bring right side towards center. They will not always meet. Pick up stem end of leaf, tucking in the filling. Roll away from you. It will be an oblong roll like a sausage. Line the bottom of a large skillet with 4 leaves. Place each roll so that the tucked under end is on the bottom. Arrange each roll snugly, one next to the other, until all the leaves (except 3), and filling are gone. Place these leaves flat on top of rolls. Place a flat dish on top of rolls also to prevent their unravelling during cooking. Add water and lemon juice. Bring to a boil. Cover. Reduce heat to simmer and cook 45 minutes. When done, remove pot from fire. Make Egg and Lemon Sauce and add to broth immediately or serve without sauce either cold as an appetizer or as a hot entree. EGG AND LEMON SAUCE: Beat eggs until thick and light yellow, at least 5 minutes, with an electric beater or 10 to 15 minutes by hand. Add juice slowly, beating all the while. Mix 1 cup hot broth into beaten eggs, stirring it in quickly with spoon (or wire whisk) so heat will not curdle the eggs. Cook over very low heat until thickened.

A recently released interview at the prestigious DW Deutsche Welle! Thank you for helping us spread the word of ancient Greek music and art of lutherie!
???? Listen to the interview here:
???????????? Some snippets from the interview:
[People] say that this sound speaks to their hearts, and touches their soul rather than their mind. (5:20) - Theodore Koumartzis at DW Deutsche Welle (29/11/2019)
According to mythology, the lyre was a gift that Hermes, the messenger of the Gods, gave to Apollo, the God of music. This is exactly how the Koumartzis family thinks of the lyre's music, as a gift of the Gods. (5:55) - DW Deutsche Welle (29/11/2019)
At first, I experiment with manufacturing a few instruments. But the whole thing went to a whole new level when the kids got involved. (2:50) - Anastasios Koumartzis at DW Deutsche Welle (29/11/2019)
Their instruments are used by professors who teach about Ancient Greece, psychologists who use therapy techniques, and musicians from all over the world. (3:15) - Alexia Kalaitzi, a journalist at DW Deutsche Welle (29/11/2019)
How do you recreate the sound of something you only know through pictures and stories? It takes care, precision and a lot of research - something the Koumartzis family in northern Greece have committed themselves to do in order to revive the instruments of ancient Greece. Now, thousands of years after it first appeared in Greek mythology and artwork, the lyre is making a comeback. - DW Deutsche Welle (29/11/2019)
When it comes to an instrument that we haven't seen or heard, all we can do is guess-work. We might not know how it sounded, but we have pottery depictions that show us what they look like. We also have written information by historians or musicians of Ancient Greece. So, what we ended up doing was a lot of research for a long period of time to come with the final design that we think is quite similar to the original. - Danis Koumartzis at DW Deutsche Welle (29/11/2019)
