    I'm so surprised yet excited to see Galaktoboureko on this channel! A little sidenote as a greek: I'm pretty sure that not soaking everything in syrup as is the traditional way really takes away a lot of the character of the dish. Next time you make it maybe try to include that step as well. It may be a bit too sweet though.

    As a poor kid growing up in America, it looks EXACTLY like Cream Of Wheat. Still love it with toast. Never had cold cereal until I was a teenager. Looking at that countertop, I'd love to see you try your hand at Sfogliatelle. It's almost a dead artform, like handmade noodles in China.

    The G in the greek culture is kinda "proprietary" and cant really be mimicked with letters, best i can do is this

    replace the g with a y and kinda say it fast and kinda gutteral (like heavy metal) or not at all, greeks will understand.

    Love your use of your maple syrup. I kind of jumped when I saw you cut without the traditional orange/honey syrup but I get where you’re coming from with you’re take. Bravo!

    I know this is going to be a super unpopular opinion or comment. When at the end of the video, Glenn was talking about the honey syrup and said that "it's fantastic," I felt uncomfortable. I had a flashback to when I would listen to one of the many former US presidents made public appearances.

    It's weird to hear that semolina is not known in your country. I live in Central Europe and semolina boiled with milk was a typical breakfast dish when i was a kid. You usually either made it loose and sweeten with sugar to taste or made it thick with a pinch of salt and then add some fruits or fruit juice on top when it sets.

    Thanks Glen and Co, Mum would buy 2x 12 Filo and dry out 8 sheets and mix them with the Semolina [using less Sugar] then top it off like you did. It made a great crunchy texture inside the Burek or Pita. cant blame you about Maple as you appear to be Canadian or near the border from previous episodes. When I described it to Anglo friends as "Milk custard pie" or just as our version of a Custard tart.

    FWIW, if you mix the semolina/cornmeal/wheatlets/etc. with the sugar well, it shouldn't clump up nearly as much. (The sugar dissolves in the liquid, leaving the grain particles separated.)
