The book you are holding in your hands was created with great enthusiasm and joy, with countless journeys across Greece and endless hours in the countryside.
The purpose of this work was to record and preserve knowledge and heritage of thousands of years, which connects people with the earth and its gifts.
76 types of greens with their common and Latin names, 167 traditional and creative recipes, 150 wonderful photographs.
Surely, the book's recipes are not only for vegetarians. As excesses or extremes do not align with the balance of variety and moderation that defines Greek traditional cuisine, the book includes a variety of dishes where greens are paired with fresh fish and seafood, with meat and legumes.
They are enclosed in fragrant doughs to become delicious pies baked in the oven or fried, and are preserved in the transparent grandeur of aromatic vinegars.
The seeds, fruits, and even the flowers are utilized in creative combinations of breads, sweets, rusks, and jams.
