Reader Reviews
I stumbled across this book in a bookstore down in Texas about four years ago and it's become my favorite Greek cookbook. The author collected these recipes back in the 70's when she went on a trip and traveled all over Greece. She would go to someone's house or out to a restaurant, and if the author liked the dish, she would ask the cook for the recipe. She took these recipes from all the different regions of Greece, put them together, and compiled this cookbook. I love this book because the dishes are very traditional like - the ones my yaya (grandmother) use to make. This book isn't about Greek food trying to be French, or anything else...but Greek. I also like the fact that the author gives the reader some background on the historical origins of the recipes. The one drawback of the book is that it doesn't have any pictures, so it might be difficult for a beginner or someone who is not familiar with Greek food. My suggestion them is to get a book with pictures so you can see what the dish is suppose to look like...but definitely use this book for the recipes. "Kali Orexi"!!!
