“I was first introduced to this walnut cake on the wonderful Ionian island of Cephalonia,” says food writer Ben Tish. “Refined and rustic at the same time, it’s gently spiced, with the bitter edge of the walnuts offset by a sweet citrussy syrup. It’s no wonder this is one of the most iconic puddings in Greece. It’s addictive and delicious, with or without ice cream.”
