Livestock is an important industry in Evia (especially for Skyros), due to the production of cheese products with Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) and others. The type of meat found in the recipes varies according to taste. The best known local traditional recipe is the Karystian Lamb / Beef (in other parts of the country it is known as Kapamas).
