  1. Χαχα, λόγω της υφής ήμουν πάντα υπέρ του χαλβά που γίνεται και με αλεύρι. Θα δοκιμάσω όμως αυτή την εκδοχή και θα σου πω εντυπώσεις. Το πορτοκάλι πάντα με τραβάει στις συνταγές. Είναι δεδομένο οτι από γεύση θα σκίζει!

    1. Είναι πάρα πολύ ωραίος χαλβάς, δεν το πιστεύω ότι δεν τον είχα υπόψη μέχρι τώρα… έχω κολλήσει for life, άσε! 😛

  2. Great job Athina! Your photos look so beautiful! I love the way you presented it. I was used to seeing Greek halvas served in square pieces, but this looks much better and attractive. I can imagine how good it is, prepared with the great Greek oranges!

    1. Thank you Adriana!! Yes, the oranges were very aromatic and yummy! Hmmm, I assume you are referring to the tahini halva. The store-bought kind comes in large square “loaves” that’s why you see it cut like that (one does not really have a choice, hehe).

      1. 🙂 In restaurants in Crete the halva served after a meal is semolina halva spiced with cinnamon. They pour the mixture in a big mold and they cut out squares. I imagine that at home they use more fancy molds… like you!

        1. Ooh, I see! Yes, at home you can get more fancy I guess. Cake moulds are commonly used (even the large ones, and then you cut out the pieces just like you would from a cake), or any kind of serving bowl.
