In Ancient Greece “gastra” was a food preparation concave utensil. This specific cookware was also indispensable for transhumant shepherds, particularly the Sarakatsani, who moved extensively all over the Epirus Mountains and lowland pastures, exchanging their dairy products with wheat, corn, flour and salt. With these simple ingredients and a pan on coals, covered by the all-purpose gastra, namely a metallic lid that converts a simple pan to an improvised oven, they cooked not only pies, but also made bread.
