    Hello again Dimitra,
    Thank you once again for another amazingly delicious recipe. Definitely making this tomorrow🤤
    I do have a question if you don’t mind?
    I watch a lot of vlogs by chefs like yourself and whenever “roasted red peppers” are used in a recipe, it’s never mentioned if the roasted red peppers are the more typical jarred ones with vinegar and oil or just jarred in oil, preferably olive oil? The ones that are in only oil are pretty much impossible to find because of shelf life and not really preserved with vinegar. What type are yours you use if you don’t mind me asking…just oil or oil vinegar?
    Thank you in advance my dear and pleeaase keep your awesome cooking/baking recipe/vlogs coming…🙏🏻😊
    Have a wonderful day Dimitra☀️

    This one of the WOW recipes‼️
    You make it look easy, I think I will make your recipe and will try with couscous as well.
    Thanks 🌷👍

    I just made this tonight. So great and easy! I just happened to have all the ingredients. But I halved the recipe and that was enough for 4 servings. I think next time I may add a pinch of red pepper flakes and some oregano just for fun.

    Looks wonderful, can hardly wait to try. Questions — How would this be the next day — cold? Would the orzo continue to absorb the stock? Could it be re-heated on the stove-top?

    Yeah “GO AHEAD” what is it with cooks that they can’t stop saying. “Go Ahead”?????? Terrible English!!!!!

    I absolutely love you. Not only are you beautiful but I think I have made all your awesome dishes. I’m Italian but you turned me Greek with all these delicious meals.😂😂😂

    I love your recipes….my best friend is Greek so I'm familiar with the food. I just wish you would speak slowly in the beginning far too fast plus not everyone speaks Greek. Thank you for introducing me to different Greek foods I haven't had. ❤️

    For any Australians out there, this pasta is more commonly known as risoni here. Great recipe.

    I love orzo, Thanks to Dimitra, and I'm always looking for new recipes. This one is pretty fancy, but it's next on the list.
