Bouyiourdi
Also known as: Μπουγιουρντί
Thessalonian baked feta meze layered with tomato, sweet pepper, chilli, oregano and olive oil.
About Bouyiourdi
Bouyiourdi is a Thessalonian Greek meze of feta baked with ripe tomato and peppers in a small covered dish. This profile follows the simple spicy version centred on feta, vegetables, oregano and olive oil rather than adding a second melting cheese.
Feta brings salty tang and lactic richness, softened by sweet tomato and red pepper. Fresh chilli and optional chilli flakes add heat, while oregano and olive oil give the baked juices a warm herbal, fruity character.
The dish arrives hot and bubbling, with a white block or thick slices of feta nestled among softened red vegetables. The cheese becomes creamy and yielding rather than fully melted, surrounded by glossy, spoonable tomato-pepper juices.
