Simple and Classical Greek Cookbook - Lila Crestwood - Bog

Greece is one of our oldest civilizations, and they know a thing or two about great art and good cuisine, and their cooking manages to combine both. The country's climate is great for agriculture, so fresh produce plays a large part in Greek cooking. Of course, its proximity to the Aegean Sea and Mediterranean Sea provides plenty of opportunities for fresh seafood. Greek cooking, a subsection of Mediterranean cooking, can be the healthiest in the world. The recipes in this Simple and Classical Greek Cookbook burst with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, Greek yogurt, lamb, and olives. And then there is the honey-packed sweet baklava for dessert. Treat your friends and family to the cuisine of Plato and Aristotle. They will thank you for it.
