Mastic Gum - .6 oz jar
Brand: Krinos
Perhaps the most famous indigineous Greek spice. The amber-colored mastic sap resin is tapped from the lentil bush (Pistachio lentiscus), and occurs only on the island of Chios. In Greek cuisine, masticha is used in cakes, cookies, drinks, liqueurs and candies.
Please note:
This Mastic Gum comes in solid form and needs to be ground down for baking. A hand grater, such as the one shown below, can be used to grind down the mastic gum:

A rare find
This was the only company I could find that had this in stock (or knew when it would be), and it arrived very quickly and in perfect condition. I need this to make my favorite rice pudding and am thrilled to have found the Greek Internet Market. I will admit that I've not yet used the product, as I'm still waiting for my earthenware dishes to arrive from another company, but I wanted to get this review written in a timely fashion. The product looks exactly right and seems just like what I used when I was in Greece and Turkey. Thank you!!!
