please tell your yia yia i love her, and thank you. i miss mine so much! i wish i was old enough to have been able to learn from her. she passed when i was young and i found so many things i have such a passion for that she also did. Yiayia's are the best! Thank you for sharing her and her recipe with us
She’s so happy that you love her cooking and even happier that you’re learning how to cook from her.
Love her cooking style. Everything comes effortlessly and so natural. Lovely yiayia ❤😊

She is beyond precious, I am just a Southern (antique) girl in the USA. We have totally different recipes for all fried foods, cornbread, vegetables , casseroles & certainly deserts. It just depends on the region where you are from. I imagine the same for Greeks. I love this recipe & add cinnamon, nutmeg, Greek oregno, bay leaf to my version. I am vegetarian & adapt all recipes to my needs. I think that to accept all versions of a classic recipe is most respectful. I love her heritage & ways of preparing a dish for her loved ones. Heartwarming & admired. Thanks for sharing.
she reminds my yiayia, I miss her so much
I'm Greek and I have cooked pastitsio a few times. I would say that too much butter has been used and more herbs could be used such as cinnamon, paprika, and nutmeg. But, in any case, I'll try to make your version and see how it tastes.
Yiayia is so cute. I make pasta in a similar way. I boil the water, add the pasta and turn off the fire. Cover the pot and check the done status after 1 minute after the length of time recommended then add the number minutes based on the doness.
Yiayia you just made the God of taste pastitsio.God bless you.

I didn't see her add any spices or herbs. I always put a little cinnamon, and a dash of cloves and nutmeg and some chopped parsley in mine. I also layer it. I have never seen it not layered.
The cheese make it good..sure does
🤤
Yiayia with the emphasis on the second ‘yia’
Would be helpful to know pan size
It’s slightly larger than 13x9
Yiayia disapproves of hard boiling noodles.
Yiassou Yiayia.... Kai Kali Orexi.... Bon apptite!
