Around a Greek Table: Recipes & Stories Arranged According to the Liturgical Seasons of the Eastern Church Paperback - 2012
by Katerina Whitley; Jasmin Hejazi (Photographer)
From the rear cover
A culinary exploration of Greece Kefi, loosely translated, is the Greek sense of joy and is often found around the dinner table during large and boisterous family meals of spanakopita, keftedes (Greek meatballs), and much, much more. Largely considered a bit of a mystery to Americans, Greek cooking is far more expansive than simply prepping up a few gyro sandwiches and Greek salads. There is an earthiness about Greek cooking, an amalgam of many historic influences. Lighter than southern Italian, much less pretentious than French, much more refined than Middle Eastern, Greek cuisine at its best is aromatic, tasty, and satisfying. Around a Greek Table explores the intricacies of Greek cooking and makes these once-mysterious recipes both understandable and possible. It also delves deep into stories of Greek life and kefi around the dinner table. The 100 recipes--from Oven-baked Lamb with Potatoes to Zucchini Fritters to Triple Moussaka and more--are organized around the Eastern Church's yearly seasons, each interpreted in one of eight chapters, with historical and personal essays exploring the ancient stories that are told around Greek tables in the honored tradition of combining myths with food.
