The Foods of the Greek Islands Cookbook

Product Info

The Foods of the Greek Islands - Cooking and Culture at the Crossroads of the Mediterranean, with recipes from Molyvos, New York’s acclaimed Greek restaurant 

Aglaia Kremezi 

On offer is a previously owned 2000 hardback edition in a dust jacket in very good to excellent condition- slight tear in dust cover. Sources say, “In this book, called by Time “the next best thing to a cruise through the Greek islands,” Aglaia Kremezi showcases the fresh, uncomplicated recipes—many of them vegetarian—that she collected from local women, fishermen, bakers, and farmers. Like all Mediterranean food, these dishes are light, simple, and feature seasonal produce, fresh herbs, and fish.

Passed from generation to generation by word of mouth, most of these recipes have never before been written down. All translate easily to the American home kitchen: Finger-Sized Fried Greens Pies; Onion, Tomato, and Feta Turnovers; Cod with Artichokes.

Filled with lush photographs and stories of island life, The Foods of the Greek Islands is for all cooks and travelers who want to experience this diverse and deeply rooted cuisine firsthand.”
