Lathouri

Lathouri is a legume, also know as grass pea in some countries, which was cultivated in Greece since 7000 B.C., from which also comes the well known fava.

​

Our family cultivates it without the addition of any fertilisers or pesticides, in a plateau over 1.200 meters above sea level, in fields that during the winter are covered with water. This, along with continuous hand sorting of the crop, gives us a product, with short cooking time and high in nutritional value as it can be consumed with its peel on.

 

Lathouri is high in proteins, edible fibers and low in salt.
