Skillet Chicken Sausage and Trahanas

Skillet Chicken Sausage and Trahanas

How important is it to you to know where your food originates?

It is the basic concept behind a company called Urbangrains.

Urbangrains is a family owned business started in 2012 that offers a wide range of artisan foods. Each item is hand-processed with no added artificial colors or flavors. They were inspired by the idea of reinventing the millenary tradition of the Mediterranean diet. Since then their quest for raw natural foods took them all over the Greek countryside to discover unique people and flavors.

In order to make sure they always offer the best possible quality, Urbangrains has one simple rule. They use seasonable selection to get the best taste and have the least possible impact on the planet.

Urbangrains offer three different pantry collections.

• Classic Collection: pure flavors from Greece
• Gourmet Collection: “twisted” traditional dainties
• The premium range “Monoxilitis”: a sought after collection produced by the monks of the monastery of St.Paul in Mount Athos (also called the Holy Mountain) that Urbangrains exclusively distributes in the UK.

Trahanas package
Urbangrains describes Trahanas as one of the most popular types of Greek pasta, consisting of buckwheat flour and milk.
They suggest you can have it as a “porridge-like” soup, which is a popular way to eat Trahanas. You can try it as risotto or create your own recipe.

I decided to try using Trahanas in a skillet casserole in place of rice. Spicy chicken sausage, tomatoes and feta brought out the subtle flavors of Trahanas.

I was given a sample of Trahanas try. I was under no obligation to write a review. Opinions are my own.
