Use more Greek olive oil!
We can't stress this enough! Olive oil is the greatest thing to come from Greece (we will gladly argue this opinion with mathematicians, doctors, political scientists, etc.). We hope that just the mention of olive oil brings Greece to mind. Why? Because Greeks use it on just about every dish. They dip their bread in it, mix it into salads, cook their meat with it, and put it on their cheese. Olive oil isn’t just an amazing and delicious add-on, but has an enormous range of health benefits, from reducing your risk of heart disease to reducing oxidative stress!

Lasagna & Ravioli: Made in Greece
Ancient Greeks had a pan called a lasana, which, according to Homer, was used to bake flat sheets of dough. The Greeks brought that pan and the flat dough with them wherever they colonized, and one of the main areas they colonized was Italy. Taken into Italian, that word and the dish, as lagana, became lasagna. To this day, lasagna features flat sheets of dough that are arranged in layer-cake fashion with foods between. In modern Greek, lagana generally means the wide, low pan and flat, unleavened Lenten breads that are baked in it; but in Macedonia, laganes refers to a thin noodle pie layered with sausage, sauce, and greens, topped with cheese. Sound familiar?

An Intro & History of Greek Food
Baked by a brilliant sun, enriched by surrounding salty seas, the food of Greece is among the most vibrant in the Mediterranean. From the dazzling array long gathered from land, sea, and sky, over the millennia the Greeks have spun a cuisine of captivating dishes. Greek cooks marry savory grass-fed meats with just-picked vegetables. They simmer stews laced with robust native herbs gathered from arid hillsides. They rub birds in lemons plucked from their copious citrus orchards and roast the birds in wood-burning ovens. They simmer lentils thick as pudding, which they top with anchovies, watercress, sun-dried tomatoes, and capers. The Greeks devour more than a hundred varieties of wild greens they forage from streams and meadows. They serve slices of their famous feta cheese – some made from sheep’s milk, some from goat’s, some from cow’s—at every meal. The name “feta” simply means “slice” because it was so popular that even in olden days it was sold like pizza. They…

The True Very Tasty Names of the Months in the Real Greek Calendar
