Scallion Pancake Gyros

It’s hard to go wrong with things wrapped in dough. There are endless variations from different cultures: burritos, bao buns, sandwiches, hot dogs, burgers, donairs, tacos etc. I could go on all day. The result is always a conveniently delicious hand held morsel that encapsulates an assortment of flavors and textures into a single bite. It should be no surprise that we can take flavors from one cuisine and wrap it into a dish from another. Here we have a scallion pancake gyros filled with the ususal suspects and a “tzatziki” made with our scallion ginger oil.
